Common Problems and Solutions

This section provides recommended solutions to common problems.
If you have a problem that is not solved by the following, contact your
local authorized Canon dealer.

Problem 1

The scanner will not turn on.

Solutions

Confirm that the AC adapter is plugged firmly into a
power outlet.

Problem 2

The scanner is not recognized.

Solutions

(1) Confirm that the scanner is properly connected to

the computer with a USB cable.

(2) Confirm that the scanner is turned on. See the

previous “Problem 1” if the scanner does not turn
on.

(3) The computer’s USB interface may not support the

scanner. The scanner cannot be guaranteed to
work with all USB interfaces.

(4) Confirm that the supplied USB cable is used to

connect the scanner to the computer. The scanner
cannot be guaranteed to work with all available USB
cables.

(5) If the scanner is connected to the computer via a

USB hub, try removing the hub and connecting
directly to the computer.

Problem 3

Documents feed askew (scanned images are
slanted).

Solutions

(1) Align the document guides to fit the documents as

closely as possible, and load the documents so that
they feed straightly.

(2) Enable [Automatically straightens skewed images]

(or [Deskew]) in the scanner driver settings.

(3) If many pages have been scanned since roller

cleaning, clean the rollers. If documents still feed
askew, roller replacement or other maintenance
may be needed. Refer to the User Manual for
detailed information.

Problem 4

Documents are not scanned according to the
settings configured in the scanner driver.

Solutions

When you scan using a job registered with
CaptureOnTouch, the registered job settings have
priority over the scanner driver settings. Edit existing job
settings, or create a new job using the desired scanning
conditions.

Problem 5

If white lines or streaks appear in scanned images.

Solutions

Clean both sides of the scanner glass, and the rollers. If
a sticky substance such as glue or correction fluid is
found, carefully wipe with just enough pressure to clean
the area where the lines appear. If the problem cannot
be solved by cleaning, the internal glass may be
scratched. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

Problem 6

Pages are missing.

Solutions

Then the scanner driver’s [Scanning Side] setting is
[Skip blank page], documents with very little black may
be unintentionally skipped. Decrease the [Set the
likelihood of skipping blank page] value, or select
another scan mode setting such as [Simplex] or
[Duplex]. Refer to the User Manual for detailed
information. If pages are skipped due to the document
double feeding, see “Problem 7 Documents jam (or
double-feed)”.

Problem 7

Documents jam (or double-feed).

Solutions

(1) If the roller has been installed correctly, clean it if

necessary.

(2) Proper scanning may not be possible when

document pages stick together due to static
electricity. Fan the documents before you load
them.

(3) Set the feed selection lever to the non separation

position, and manually feed the scanner one page at
a time.
