Here is a video that might help you step by step, or may just point you in the right direction.
I got very frustrated trying to do this, so I thought I would make a quick video hoping that it helps anyone else that might be having the same problem (I have/used the canon MP240 printer/scanner)
Hope it helps.
enjoy

Watching this video 9 years after it's made....love this guy !
No it is NOT an awful video!❤ All these years later there is one old lady that appreciates you sharing this!!😊😊😊
Thumbs up for saying please feel free to subscribe and then following up with "I really don't give a shit."
YES.
I have been sitting here for an hour with a bunch of documents and was about to give up when my stubborn brain finally decided to look up a tutorial.
Thank you :)
9 years ago,back when close ups weren't cringe and actually people knew when and how to use it
I just pressed scan about two hundred million times, when that didn't work, I pressed it about another 50 thousand times then kicked the printer really hard and hurt my toes. Thank you very much my ansome, you may have just saved me from finally going completely bonkers !
Thank you. That is what I have been trying to figure out. You were very clear and gave simple directions. Much appreciated
*4 years later* YOU LITERALLY SAVED MY LIFE THANK YOU OML
The *key* was your directive of doing it from the computer and not touching the printer!
Wow...I kinda had to figure out after scanning it into my computer the requirements FB wanted/needed in order to upload my flyer to their site (TIF format) but once I did that--I was all set! And here I thought it was going to be either impossible or not doable! Wow...it was so simple and I didn't even need to watch the whole darn video! I had it at 2:17 seconds! Thank you bunches!
For those using a *HP Deskjet 2540*, only type "scan" into the search. (I got ahead of myself as I was following instructions. XP)
*HP Scan* should be at the top of the list, the rest should be obvious, but I'll spell it out anyway.
Choose the first option being "Photo to file", after using it once, *HP Scan* will appear in your start menu.
For the sake of convenience, drag that sucker to your desktop.
Oh, and thank you, Wakaphwap, this was very helpful. : )
In my state of rage, I never would have thought to actually use the search option. XD
+Dawn Wayfinder dont worry about it...judging by the views its helping a fair amount of people
Yes. I was very VERY frustrated - but not any longer :-) . Trying to figure out the instructions from the CD Rom was painful to say the least. Then I find this video and within minutes I am able to scan and upload a pic to my picture files. Yay ! Thank you wakaphwap - you make it all so simple. You saved me from completely tearing my hair out (the little hair I have still got left , lol )
brooooo wut the hell??? this is so easy yet I've just learned it!! thanks!!!!! A LOT seriously.
Superb; simple, straight forward, concise & to precise that even my 5 year old understood about the scanner. Thanks for the video.
Favorite parts:
1) OH GOD IT'S A MESS! Well you know what that means...means shits getting done...
2)*Shows you a bunch of buttons* I HAVE A VARIETY OF BUTTONS HERE. Do not press any of them.
3) Please feel free to subscribe...you know...I really don't give a shit..
PS: Thank you XD
Holy hell your a life savor man, i have a project due for a contest tomarrow and i was freaking out because i couldnt afford a bamboo pad or waccum pad i had to free draw it and it was a mess! thank you so much for being so calm, clear, and collected.
you are a life saver and i love your attitude, lets be friends lmao
Well after 4 hours of pushing buttons on my friggin pixma mp522 printer, I found you! And, within 10 minutes I had my piece of paper scanned. No manual came with my printer of course, only the setup in 7 different languages. I looked for a manual setup download (which ended up being trojan infected luckily my antivirus caught it) just to find out how to scan, and it was just as easy as your method. I'm telling you. Thank you, you saved more hair pulling out of my head from frustration!!!
youre welcome i just watched this video for the 1st time since i made it....i had no idea it would be this helpful
OMG!!! It *WORK'D!!* You are the FIRST one whose direction I followed and I was able to take my offline flyer, scan it and place it on Facebook! Wow!!! I'm so happy! Thank you! Thank you! T-H-A-N-K -Y-O-U!!!!
Your hints helped me to figure out what and where. I didn't have the same thing, but I got it figured out too. Thanks
I was barely half-way through your video, but I will watch it in its entirety just because... ;)
Thank you for making this video!! I was getting frustrated with my Canon MG2920's scan function and lack of scan software. Your expertise helped out a lot!
THANKS YOU HAVE A GREAT VOICE AND LOVE THE WAY THIS WAS FINISHED. THE GOOD NEWS AND THE TROUBLE SPOTS YOU HAD . YOUR TRUTH IS REFRESHING
Thank you so much, easy and straight to the point.
I was frightened of how to scan my pictures to send them to my web friends and watching your how to scan a picture/document into your computer, works and I don't know how to high five you for showing me how to do this but I do know how Frenche' men show gratitude by kissing each other on the cheek without kissing each other without saliva, you have been Frenche' gratitude kiss. Taa Taa!
OHHHHH MYYYYY GOSH!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I WAS BREAKING MY HEAD OVER THIS! YOU SAVED MEEEE!!!!!
U have answered my 4 years question about scanning.
9 years later and we up lol
Lmao "feel free to subscribe I really don't give a shit"🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for this video! I'm an online student, and you can imagine how useful this is! You've saved my butt twice now!
Online school is extremely difficult. I take a lot of notes on the things that i read. I usually have to watch/read how to do it a couple times over. Mostly I just get things down on paper because it's a lot easier than going back and forth through tabs, and Microsoft. There's homework every day, and it is extremely easy to get behind fast. You can also print off the study guides that they give you, it's not personally my favorite way of doing it, but the really helps others.
What a life saving video!!!! Thank you for the quick and easy lesson!!
omg i was really stressing out about having to call someone to configure my canon scanner and this video saved my life.... Thank you so so so much !!!!!! I know this video is old but it really helped :) thank you!
So nice of you to unveil this mystery. Very grateful fan.
I love your attitude! 😂😂😂
finally! I kept trying to press the botton saying "scan" and it never worked. thank you!
thank you for saving me from getting cancer
I have windows 8, and the application is called windows fax and scan. Once you find that all you have to do is click new scan in the top left hand corner and it should save into your pictures.
Awesome,thank you. Exactly what I wanted to know.
thank you so much you right I was frustrated I have almost the same kind of printer/scanner but I have the canon pixma MG 2922 and I couldn't figure out how to scan my document until I watched your video so THANNNNKKKKK YOUUUU!!!
I have the same wondermachine... You are my savior! Thanks!
Thanks dude - found the hardware item via the device manager ( from the start on the bottom left of screen )
Then I did a right click and it opened a drop down to SCAN - hurrahhhh - success
