I don't know how to get my MP210 to scan! And pressing the button do nothing! I am using a MAC too.

Hello! Here is your solution.
1. Press Stop/Reset button for 5 seconds. 2. After 5 seconds your printer will start one process. 3. Now release to hold the button.
Now your printer is ready to use.... thanks

Open Solution menu from your desktop and choose Scanning Photos. Now put you photo on scanner board and press preview from your solution menu. After preview completing press scan... thanks

Your printer might be out of paper.. so try this..... press Black/Color button... if it doesn't work turn off your printer and press paper feeder on the back side and press the power button with holding the paper feeder. Don release it until the process of printer is complete... thanks

My PSC's that interface to PC's have an HP Director software that responds to the scan button.

Does a MAC do the same thing? It's not automatic.

You can actually initiate a document scanning via the "Scan" button on the printer or by alternately, by launching the MP Navigator EX software from your PC. Pressing the "Scan" button will launch the same software.

In MP Navigator EX, you can specify the type of original, change resolution, choose a format in which to save the scan (TIFF, JPEG, PDF, BMP), and edit the resulting scans. Within the custom scan tab, you can do advanced actions such as scanning originals larger than the platen using stitch assist and scan into a software program (such as Excel or Word). You can also attach scans to e-mails or save them to your PC.

Hi there,
Scanning images : You can scan images from the machine to a computer without printing them and save them in popular image types such as JPEG, TIFF, bitmaps or PDF. If you are scanning printed text, you can use the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software to convert it to text data.

Scanning Methods : You can select from various scanning methods.

You can also use the Operation Panel to open MP Navigator EX as well as open it using the computer.

Make sure all the cords are properly connected. Did it come with any software? Sometimes you have to use the software to scan instead or pressing the button on the printer
