MX472 - Scanner only scans in sections?

Rchey

I'm trying to scan a few documents as pictures with my Canon MX472 and it's scanning my document in sections. For example, instead of scanning the entire document as one photo, my document gets split into two or three different pictures. Anyone know how to fix this?

Are you using the IJ scan utility? Are you selecting Auto Scan, Document Scan or Photo Scan?
Depending on what you're scanning, if you are choosing auto-scan, it may not work correctly. I'd choose document scan if you want it to be a PDF or photo scan if you want it to be a jpeg.

Hey Rchey, looks like you got a lot of help here? I have the same issue. It would be nice if Canon supported their products, but unfortunately they sell them, but they don't support them.

Hi,

So we can best assist you, please let us know the answers to the following: 

  1. What is the model of your printer?
  2. What version of Windows or MacOS are you running?
  3. Are you using IJ Scan Utility? 

We look forward to your reply.
