I want to save the scan to the computer. What do I have to do?

You need a scanner to scan pictures which can be saved in various formats including .pdf, bmp .jpg

Some scanners if linked to a computer by a cable or wifi will automatically save the files to a folder on your computer.

If you don’t have a scanner but have a smart phone with a camera you can take pictures or phone scans then email them to an account on your computer.

What OS are you using? How is the all-in-one connected to your computer. To scan to the computer, you need to install the full software package (if it is available for your OS). If only the OS drivers are available, you will be able to save scans. However, you can only initiate the scan from your computer. Additionally, if you have the all-in-one connected to a print server (or router USB port), the scan features will not work. (The scanner requires two-way communication with the computer and can fail if you use a USB hub, bad cable, or a long cable. Thus try a new cable of less than 6' in length if you can't launch a scan from the computer.)

Next: use the Canon software (MP Navigator EX) and initiate a scan. You will need to adjust some settings to make sure that the program knows what program to open when you press the scan to computer button. The monitoring software will need to be running to identify the button presses. To set this, select Preferences, then the Scanner Button settings tab. Select Actions and then choose Save to PC in the Event drop-down menu. Use the first scan to set the default scan preferences and destination folder. Then click OK to save the settings.

If you do not have the MP Navigator program, use any scanning program on your computer. For Windows 7 and 8, there is Windows Fax and Scan that can work with the MP252. The Apple Macintosh has a similar program. Third party software will also work (Nuance's PaperPort, for example).

See page 318 in the Advanced section of the manual (available from Canon) for screen captures of setting MP Navigator. http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/Consumer_Products/products/Fax__Multifunctionals/InkJet/PIXMA_MP_series/PIXMA_MP252.aspx?type=manuals .

I hope this helps.

The Lexmark X2670 printer does not have the capability of scanning photos directly to Facebook. However, you can scan your photos to your computer and save the scanned file. Then post the saved file to your Facebook account.

1. Open the top cover, and then load an original document facedown on the scanner glass.
2. Close the top cover to avoid dark edges on the scanned image.
3. Make sure that the printer is connected to a computer, and that both the printer and the computer are on.
4. From the printer control panel, press the Scan button.
5. Follow the instructions on the computer screen.

After saving the file, open your Facebook account and post your saved photos.

Normal 0 The best way to scan images to save on your computer is touse the scanner software on the computer. Not the scan function on the scanner.
You don't say what type of scanner and software you have but usually scannersoftware works this way:
1) Place photo on scanner
2) Open scanner software
3) Using the software, Initiate scan
4) Name the Scanned item and save it to your desired location/folder
Note: some applications will automatically save to --My Documents--My Pictures
5) Repeat process for each pic to be scanned.

You need to use all scan features. To do that use for scan the software provided by HP
HP Photosmart software, with that you can save your files onto your computer.
