Have a problem with my scanner!
Hi there, I have an all-in-one Canon Pixma MP510. Installed the software fine, printer works all right, but can´t get the thing to scan. Tried to reinstall, but the same problem occured. It keeps reporting an error: "Cannot communicate with scanner. Cable may be disconnected (which it isn´t) or scanner may be turned off (sure isn´t). Check status. Code: 2,155,0.
Any usefull advise will be much appreciated.
Cheers!!

Hello!
Please go to this page:

You will need to scroll down just a bit to the box that says "Select OS" and choose which operating system you have.
Then scroll down a bit more and click on "Software" and under software you will find "MP Navigator" closer to the bottom of the list. The download button will be to the right of the software description.
That is the program you will need to download and install to get your scanner working! Hope this helps! Have a great evening!
may be you not installed the scanner application software if you have driver disk of printer choose the customs installation and select the scanning option menu and re install it the application.
If you are pushing scan and then black or color and the scanner is not working then check to see if the scanner loaded whth the rest of the options. Click start, chose printers and faxes, choose scanners and cameras, right click WIA Canon MP510, choose properties, check status. If not active or not there, you will need to reinstall.
