When you connect a scanner to your device or add a new scanner to your home network, you can usually start scanning pictures and documents right away. If your scanner doesn't automatically install, here's some help to get things working.

In most cases, all you have to do to set up a scanner is to connect it to your device. Plug the USB cable from your scanner into an available USB port on your device, and turn the scanner on. If that doesn't work, here's a way to do it manually.

If your scanner is turned on and connected to the network, Windows should find it automatically. Available scanners can include all scanners on a network, such as Bluetooth and wireless scanners or scanners that are plugged into another device and shared on the network. Here's a way to do it manually.

If you use wireless access points, extenders or multiple wireless routers with separate SSIDs, you'll need to ensure that you're connected to the same network as the scanner for your PC to find and install it.

If your scanner is included in a multifunction or All-In-One printer, you may only see the name of your printer. To see your scanner, under Printers & scanners, select your installed printer, select Manage, and then choose your scanner.

After your scan is finished, select View to see the scanned file before you save it, or select Close to save it. You can edit the scanned document or picture in the preview that appears when you select View.

When I had Windows 7, I was able to add the scanning component of my multi-function MP990 to Control Panel (Devices and Printers) as a separate device. This enabled Windows Fax and Scan to recognize the scanning component of my MP990 and scan from it.

Recently I did a clean ('custom') install of Windows 8. Unfortunately, I cannot remember how I setup the scanning component of my multi-function MP990 as a separate device, and now Windows Fax and Scan does not recognize that I have a scanner.

Would someone please remind me how to setup the scanning component of my multi-function printer in Devices and Printers so that Windows Fax and Scan will recognize my scanner and scan from it. Many thanks.

If you have already installed the Canon MP990 then it will appear in Devices and Printers as a printer. I discovered that, in my case, the MP990 was only installed as a printer. You want it to be installed as a printer and a scanner.

The Windows Fax and Scan program will often use the WIA drivers, but may have access to the TWAIN drivers as well. To ensure that the scanner drivers are installed properly, check the following path: C:/Windows/TWAIN_32. You should see a folder for the Canon printer as well as a file called wiatwain.ds. If these items are not in the TWAIN_32 folder, reinstall the drivers. If they are, then I recommend contacting Microsoft for additional help with setting up the Fax and Scan program to recognize your scanner.

@Molambre i noticed the same issue on two of my personal laptops with xerox c235 today. Surprisengly on my company laptop the printer is still visible and working properly. I also tried with similar steps as you did with no resulr. I have xerox print and scan experience 7.0 on all laptops.

The connection with the printer with my USB cable is working (I'm not using a laptop but a tower as a computer), the scanner is doing is job by scanning the document, but I can't get the preview on my screen. When the preview is trying to load, it keeps freezing and nothing appears.

Place a document on the machine, and press PC1> or PC2>, and scanning starts immediately. The type of scan (color or black and white), the save destination for the document, and other settings can be registered to a button, and documents can be scanned using those settings. This section describes how to register settings in a button and scan with it. USPayserv

Before I was using MF Toolbox and everything was working fine, I could get a Preview before scanning. But now, when I try to get a Preview using MF Toolbox, the scanner is scanning the document, but the Preview is freezing on my computer screen like that:

I am configuring a computer for my old man and he is frequently scanning documents. He has a bad memory and is not very good with computers so I am trying to make things as simple as possible for him.

Thanks, I'm actually doing the same, setting up my dad's new computer. So there's an application in C:\Windows\System32 called wiaacmrg.exe that opens a scan console, so you can make a shortcut to it and it has an icon with scanner next to a camera so it's just about perfect.

After I posted I went ahead and scanned the rest of the ones I could. I guess now it make a bit more sense. I think the only thing I was missing was something a bit more obvious at the top of each entry, kind of like how the Mac version lets you select the QR code right from the Purple banner.

Yea thanks @Blake . Once I got the hang of how to perform the steps in Windows it's actually a bit better because it just automatically scans the entire screen. It was the initial, "where do I do this?" that threw me off. :) :p

I know enough about packet analysis to find out what the root cause of a problem is most of the time, so I had a look at those 2 packet captures side by side. What I saw in them was identical. Repeated reverse DNS lookups that continually failed causing scans to deliver slowly.

If you are interested in learning more through personal analysis you can take a packet capture using the built-in network troubleshooting log function found in the security section of the Xerox Embedded Web Server. Take a capture of the scanning process with your previous DNS servers configured and one with the new ones and take a look at the difference in Wireshark.

I would need to see a network troubleshooting log (packet capture) to verify that I'm correct, but in my experience this is usually caused by failed reverse DNS lookups. An easy test to validate my assumption is to remove any DNS entries from the machines TCP/IP settings and retest scanning. Of course you'll need to have your scan configuration setup via IP and not hostname since we've removed DNS servers. If it works normally without DNS servers entered on the Xerox and you want to have DNS servers configured on the device then you'll need to look into your server side configuration and make sure that reverse dns zones and PTR's that are properly configured so the queries that the machine makes can complete.

I have an elderly novice client using Windows 10 Pro and the Windows Scan app that we downloaded from the Microsoft Store, as his fancy Canon laser AIO's native software keeps tripping up. The Scan app works just fine, but he keeps his scans in a folder on his Desktop and the app keeps defaulting to saving the items into a Scans subfolder within Pictures. It's confusing him and I'd like to find a way, maybe through registry edits, to change the default save location so it always directs to his Desktop subfolder. It's too many steps for him to have to change the default save location every time. Googling this has proved problematic, since the search terms are so generic. Anyone here have a clue?

During installation, Windows got itself all the drivers, but it didn't install the manufacturer's scanner software. Not a big deal, since Windows Vista there is Windows fax and scan, that can handle most scanners. Oops, it's gone under windows 11!

Windows fax and scan is not installed by default in windows 11. The program is old, but it is the only (proper) app for scanning documents in Windows that is included by default.

This results in the fact that scanning documents via this app is offered via the Windows search function, even though it is not installed.

The new scanner app is not preinstalled, you have to download it from the store via the scanner settings-option. So have fun scanning without an internet connection. People complain that the app sucks and doesn't do much - but I'm not surprised, because it looks like it hasn't been touched since Windows 8.

If you have a scanner, you can manage it with this app. From changing your scanner's settings to modifying the documents you scan, this app does it all. For example, you can crop the image or change the file type. But these adjustments don't have to be made after the fact: Windows Scan also has a preview option that lets you check how the document will be scanned, so you can make changes before scanning.

In addition to the advice already given, I have found that when the drive is connected to the network wirelessly, if you power down the drive before connecting it directly to your computer, this will lessen the chances that Windows will want to scan the drive.

As for scanning on boot, while it doesn't normally do this, if you enable rootkit scanning under Settings>Protection in the Scan Options section and attempt a scan and it is prevented from loading the anti-rootkit driver (a tactic some threats, especially rootkits, will use against anti-rootkit utilities and other scanners to try and stop them) then Malwarebytes will provide the option to reboot the system to load the anti-rootkit driver early during system restart at which point the scan will resume early in the boot process to deal with the threats. 006ab0faaa
