How do I scan and e-mail with my wireless Pixma MG5520 printer? My operating system is windows 7

[Dags]

When I try to scan a document on my wireless printer the readout tells me "Local USB" . Does that mean that I have to connect a USB cable before I can scan and e-mail?

Thank you for any help.

just got a new computer, trying to scan to it... the wireless printer readout says "local USB".  I am connected wirelessly... I could scan with my old computer, don't remember what I did with that machine

I reinstalled the driver from the canon website. My laptop then showed up under 'local USB'. this enabled me to scan and send the document directly to a folder on my laptop. 

I have not used the direct to email option yet. 

the drivers can be found on this page if you search with your printer's model number.
