The shipping lock stops the damage in transit of the scanner or printer, there will be a lever on the underside or the side of the scanner/printer or there will be something holding the printing head in place under the cover.

    i mearly answered your question, your comment was different again from your original question, but the answer is the same, if you don't unlock the shiping lock you cant use the scanner, so you cant import anything, refer to the user manual to find the lock that holds the scanner bar in place from purchase

I have a 2002 Trailblazer my problem is when im going down the road at any given time my truck will loose power (but no light comes on) and i cant go over 40 or so rpms wont go over 1000 rmp . whats...

Have a OBII scan (fault scan) done any good shop or parts store can do it.(Most will do it free) Just because light is not on doesn't mean there's a fault. You computer tracks literally everything. I'm suspecting crankshaft trigger but have the scan done instead of throwing parts & $$$ at it.

I want to scan a doucument on the PIXMA MP500.

You must have got a CD with the printer. Just install it and load the paper in the scanner and press the scan button on the front panel. It automatically starts to scan and shows you the document. Later it will ask you whether to save it as a JPG file (as image) or a PDF file (document).

My Canon PIXMA MP500 won't scan.

See to it that no other stickers or lock that won't allow to run of read the scanner in your printer.

Usually this kind of settings are very difficult if also you don't read the manual or procedures on how to use it.

If you encounter like this that your printer won't scan. Not for thinking but you send it to Canon Center or Computer Shop near in your place.

Good luck.

Won't scan

The scanning feature is much more sensitive to connection signal strength than the printing function. Make sure the USB connection is firmly in place on both the computer and the MP500. If this doesn't fix the problem I would try a different 6 foot length USB cable.

Canon mp500 onlt scans part of the page

I was very frustrated by this problem too, but just found a fix at last!!

Instead of focussing on the settings on the scanner itself. Use the MP navigator software to change scan settings and get around this problem. there you can set document size, colour or black and white and even DPI (quality) .
