MF733cdw Scanning Too Light. No Place to Adjust Density for Scan to Computer.

Hello,

 

Where specifically can I adjust the scan density in the MF733cdw? I scan from the printer to my PC.  Currently, all scans are illegible. I also tried 3rd party scanning software and Scangear software, There is no place to adjust the density.

 

I have looked everywhere in the MF Scan Utility and the Printer web UI. The closest I can find in the web UI is "Function Settings-> Store/Access Files Settings-> "scan setting" however, once you click in, it is actually "Scan Settings USB Memory Settings" specifically for Scanning to USB Drive which does not help. 

 

Settings/Registration: Function Settings: TX Settings  > Scan and Send Settings >File Settings Density has no effect either. 

 

Double sided and single sided scans are affected. 

 

If you can help, please reply with specifics. I will never purchase another Canon Printer again.

SAME HERE.  totally useless as a scanner. I bought it just to have a scanner when remodeling my home and needing to like a hundred receipts.  on EVERY attempt the scan is white out and impossible to read.  Useless piece of junk.

Canon won't let me mention its name, but there is third-party scanner software that makes the Canon scanner totally satisfactory.
