Hi Jehday14,

 

Please complete the following steps to enable scanning over a network:

 

Specifying Your Scanner or Printer

 

  1. From the Go menu of Finder, select Applications, then double-click the Canon Utilities folder, IJ Network Scanner Selector EX folder, then Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX icon.  The Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX appears in the menu bar, and the Scan-from-PC Settings screen appears.

  2. Select your scanner or printer from Scanners.  Select the Bonjour service name set to your scanner or printer. When Bonjour is disabled, the MAC address of your scanner or printer appears.

  3. Click OK.



Setting for Scanning with IJ Scan Utility

 

Please follow the steps below to set the printer for scanning using the IJ Scan Utility:

  1. Start the IJ Scan Utility.

  2. Select "Canon XXX series Network" (where "XXX" is the model name) for Product Name.

    The Scan-from-PC Settings screen of IJ Network Scanner Selector EX appears.  Select the scanner you want to use and click OK.

Hope this helps!
