How to create PDF file from MX7600 scanner in Windows 8.1

[alove5230]

I just changed to a new desktop PC that is running Windows 8.1. I downloaded the drivers from the Canon website for Windows 8.1, and I can not find the function to create a PDF file of the scanned document, like I could in Windows 7. How can I created a PDF file in the new driver software?

Hi alove5230,

Ini addition to the drivers, you will need to download the MP Navigator software for the printer to create PDF files.  Please click here to go to the Drivers and Software page for the PIXMA MX7600.  Once on the initial download page for your printer, please do the following:

1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.

2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "SOFTWARE" section and click on the MP NAVIGATOR file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.

Once the file is downloaded, please double-click on it to install the program on your computer.

Hope this helps!
