imageCLASS MF4450 MF toolbox can't find scanner

My MF4450 scanner worked 3 days ago, but it stopped funtioning today after my windows 10 pro recent patch, I guess. MF toolbox 4.9 can't connect to the scanner, with error msg" a supported scanner is not installed". The most funny part is windows fax & scanner can scan via this scanner. I connected the scanner to my PC directly via USB. Any solution?

 

 

Regards,

Chris.

Hi Patrice,
Actually, this is incorrect according to the manual of MF4370. It specifically states how to configure on Mac a network connected MF4370.
Problem is - it does not really work.
My comment about extremely poor support by Canon of its products on major operating systems other than Windows - stands (regardless of correctness of your reply).
Extremely disappointing for such a premium (obviously in the past) brand.
Next time will stick with Brother, or any manufacturer who provides decent support on non Windows OSes. Brother is just a good example of one who does it consistently and for many years.
