Hi mattzapp26

You can scan photos placed on the platen with settings suitable for photos.

Place the photo on the platen.
Start IJ Scan Utility.
Click Settings..., then set the paper size, resolution, etc. in the Settings (Photo Scan) dialog box as required.
When setting is completed, click OK.
Click Photo.
Scanning starts.

Note

Click Cancel to cancel the scan.
Scanned images are saved in the folder set for Save in in the Settings (Photo Scan) dialog box displayed by clicking Settings.... In the Settings (Photo Scan) dialog box, you can also make advanced scan settings.

Hi saprescod,

What model Canon printer do you own?

What version of OSX is installed on your computer?
