Hi kashsmommy08!

We have windows 8 and I downloaded all the drivers that were on the disk that came with the canon.

Hi Kashsmommy08,

The MP Navigator software supplied with the MX439 will allow you to scan.  If you don't have an icon for MP Navigator on your desktop, put your mouse in the bottom left corner to bring up the start screen and just type MP Navigator, and it should come up as one of the installed programs.  Once MP Navigator is open, the easiest way to go about scanning would be to click the One Click Menu.  If you wan't to scan a document, choose save as PDF.  If you want to scan a picture, choose Save to PC.  From there you can choose the filename, save location and resolution you wish to use to perform the scan.

Hi rward88,

Assuming you have installed the drivers and are using the MP Navigator program to scan, it may be a simple setting within the application.

1. Start MP Navigator EX.

2. Click Preferences.

3. Click the General tab and select "XXX series Network" (where "XXX" is the model name) for Product Name.

   

If this didn't work, or if you have any other questions, please feel free to Contact Us!

I am having problems with my 439 as well. I can't scan wirelessly. I can plug in through USB and it works great but not through the network. Do you have any ideas?? I can print wireless,but not scan.
