Canon mp 210. Prints fine.....I want to scan a text...it will not do anything.??????

Hey Yasmin,

I had the same problem.

I installed the MP Navigator (MP Navigator Ver. 3.03 (Windows 7/7 x64/Vista/Vista64/XP/XP x64/2000/Me/98) from the canon website (http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0900173112.html) and then I released the scannerlock (http://www.fixya.com/support/t5363070-trace_release_scanner_lock)
and then I could scan! Not only through the printer itself by pressing the (<I>) button but also through the MP Navigator program. When I pressed the (<I>) button on the printer, the scanned document would be automatically saved on the computer in a folder of MP Navigator.

Hope this helps you!

Esther

hi Jackelle21.
i have had a look around the internet and all i can find out from going into forums is that the problem might be because you need to download what they are calling (mp navigator)
so not sure if this is what you have to do.but if you go to this link you will see download sites to where you can get it.



mp navigator download Google Search
or this one.
Canon MP Navigator EX

reload the printer drivers and then it will work properly.

As for the drivers, go to the following link and then click on the "Drivers and Downloads" tab, then choose your operating system. It should then give you the drivers under the "Driver" heading right below the operating system drop-down box. The software is there as well.

well..it may be that this one needs to plug directly into the wall socket..check in the installation guide..

go into administrative tools click on services and make sure windows image acquisition (WIA) is on manual

Try this:

-Uninstall your MP600 software, reboot, then re-install.

it seems like ink is everywhere inside on the right side and the pics that are printed are bad

Does the computer see the printer? If using Windows, open Printers folder, and see if the printer shows up. When printing from Word, is the Canon Pixma 210 an option to print to? Double check the cables and re-seat the cables (Disconnect, and reconnect) does the computer make a sound when disconnected, and reconnected? Please let me know if any of this was helpful, or if you have more info that may help with the issue.

Have you tried using Scanners and cams in start menu rather than using scan button on printer?
