Maxify MB2320 won't scan from panel anymore

[Mike20878]

I'm not sure what's happening.  When I try to scan from the panel nothing happens.  The Scanner Selector is running.

Thanks.

1Check that IJ Network Scanner Selector EX is running.

  The Scan-from-PC Settings screen appears.

3Select your scanner or printer from Scanners.

 Normally, the MAC address of your scanner or printer is already selected after the network setup. In that case, you do not   need to select it again.

Yes, I noted that it is running.  Could the MAC address have changed on the printer so that it isn't recognized?

I can scan from the scan utility.

Hi Mike20878,

The MAC address of your MB2320 does not change, it is hard-coded into the device.

Reinstalling the driver should resovle this issue. To do this, please follow these steps:

 5.  In the upper left corner, click on Control Panel (or the Back button).

 6.  In Control Panel, click on Uninstall a program (or Programs and features, depending on your view).

 7.  Click once on "Canon MB2300 series MP Drivers" and then click Uninstall at the top.

 8.  Follow the on screen prompts to uninstall the driver.  When you click Complete,  the driver is uninstalled.

 9.  Once done, please reboot your computer.

When your computer restarts, we will reinstall:

Once the installation has completed, please attempt to scan.

Hi, I'm having the scan issue again so I came back to this post.  Now, however, when I try to reinstall the printer drivers Windows gives an error that the USB device is not recognized.

Thanks.

so i was able to get my printer to connect to my computers and net work but now the scan option sees nothing but USB. I used to be able to see my printer on this function and trigger a scan from the printer itself. I am on mac OS running catalina.
