    canon IR5070 Scanning

    I have just installed a Canon IR5070, customer is running windows7. The printing is working fine. I have no clue how to have it scan documents. They are running Word. You used to be able to just go to edit, or insert, and select pictures, and select scanner, but I believe the Windows7 has a scan feature, and when you select that the copier does not show up. Does it need a scanner driver? I have already installed Network Scangear, and it detects it just fine. Without having to purchase a different driver, or software, is there a way to scan documents into a file currently the way it is? Thank you for any help with this.

    IMPORTANT:
    first you must switch the scanner online (on Control Panel)

    If you are using Network ScanGear for the first time after installing it, the network scanner to be used must be selected with the ScanGear Tool.

    Network ScanGear driver cannot be started at the same time as the ScanGear Tool. If the ScanGear Tool is running, close it.
    Selecting the network scanner to be used with the ScanGear Tool enables scanning with Network ScanGear. No scanner is selected during Network ScanGear installation, so this operation is required before use.

    IMPORTANT:
    first you must switch the scanner online (on Control Panel)

      The install disk for microsoft office has an optional application that allows you to select a scanner as an input source.

        the app you need to install is Microsoft Office Document Imaging. Located on the office disk.

            Thank you for that information. So the actual scanning process with Microsoft Word, would be thru the tool? Or is there going to be a drop down box in the Microsoft Word application that says scanner, or will they be able to use the Scanner selection through Windows7. What would the idiots guide version to what does the customer do after opening up Microsoft Word to scan a document.

            Thank you for this, I apologize wholeheartedly to being completely oblivious to how this works, and for having customers who are just as oblivious too.

              The scanner tool allows the word application to use the canon as a twain scanner. The tool will not scan by itself. Microsoft office does not install the capfure tool unless you specifically tell it too. See the install instructions in the previous post.

                Buy a license of the universal canon send and use the sending by smb in the network is more practical and faster, you can send email and files in jpg tiff and pdf in the same formats. networkscangear is a delay for this machine model once that this machine is very fast.

                  Sorry to be a little bit out of the subject.

                  I've custmers who avoid using scan to file (SMB) because they've to shear a file and it is a security issue.

                    yeah, using USEND (SMB), we must give full access control, and it becomes a security issue, I recommend to to my customer to store scanned document on a server, and move to his/her PC.

                      With security in mind the option of saving files on the server is not bad once you will not need to provide the administrator password Copier The question of security mentioned is a way to prevent someone Change, equipment setup? If due to information stored there safety kit canon that are efficient in this regard. Here we work with these kits in large multinational companies such as Petrobras.
