[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1925160, member: 175845"] For your fan noise, I would suggest downloading and installing [B]Macs Fan Control[/B].app which will give you the internal temperatures of your Mac and allow you to possibly lower the speed if it's due to some fast speed it wasn't running at previously. It could also be due to bad bearings which would require a replacement being necessary. As for your printer/scanner, even though it is probably different from the Canon MX 922 I use, I ended up using two separate drivers to add them to the Dock, one for the printer only, and one for the scanner only: [ATTACH type="full"]37819[/ATTACH] I had to replace one of the fans on my 2011 27 inch iMac last year due to a very noisy bearing. I also have used the Macs Fan Control for several years which also allowed me to vary each of the fan's speeds which allowed me to identify which fan(s) were faulty. And it was only one. - Patrick ======= [/QUOTE]
