Can my Pixma scan to multiple devices?

I've got an MG7520 that is currently tied (wirelessly) to an old Windows PC. I'd like to be able to scan to other devices(Macs). Is that doable? Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

Only one scan to destination is supported for each operation.  

 

Example:

If you have 5 computers, you would need to perform 5 scan operations for each to receive the the output.

 

Scan to:

PC1

then

PC2

then

PC3...

 

This should help:

Hi, swami7774!

Thanks for posting on our forum! This community is designed for your fellow Canon owners to help each other out with any problems they may encounter. If this is a time-sensitive matter, click HERE search our knowledge base or find additional support options HERE.

Thanks and have a great day!

I hope this site is of more help than contacting Canon directly. 

I have a Pixma 7520. Can I configure it to scan to multiple devices or must it be tied to one  computer at a time?

TIA.

Thanks. That gets me partially there.  I may not have been clear enough; I'm not looking to scan to multiple devices simultaneously. I'm looking to configure the Pixma to have a choice  of scanning destinations: PC, MacBook, iPad ,etc  I think from quickly reading the link you sent, that I can do that.  Am I correct? 

Greetings,

You are correct.
