Save scan to My Documents? Canon mx310

Hi
I think you will need to run the cd installer again to install the scanner driver on your printer.

You can check if the driver of the scanner was successfully installed once you view on the Scanners & Cameras inside the Control Panel and see the image of your printer scanner. It means it is connected and ready to be used. If you can not see the icon of the printer scanner there, then, it could not be installed or the printer is attached to other pc in the network.

Remember to use the printer as scanner, it should be attached locally to the pc you are using. Pressing the Scan button in the printer will save the scanned documents in the computer as pdf files.
In order to save the documents as jpeg files, you must need to use the scan option on the Scanners & Cameras inside the Control Panel.

Hope it helps. Just post back if you still have questions.

Scan from Acrobat Proffesional. File/Create PDF/From Scanner. There is option to scan both sides, multiply pages, ext.

If you load the documents and press the SCAN button, the file will be save directly to the pc as pdf file.

You can use the scanner option on the control panel to scan the documents and save as jpeg file. How? Go on Start...click Control Panel...then select Scanners/Cameras..click next and follow instructions..

2. click hardware and sounds
3. then hit devices and printers
4. then click on the Canon Inkjet MX310 seriers
5. then you will see scanner management click on scan Photos or docs
