Very helpful review! I was curious about this printer’s scanning capabilities when working with a Mac, and you answered my question completely. Now I’m ready to pull the trigger.

You’ve done me a great service with this review. Thanks!

Farhad, could you be a bit more specific?

What sort of problem is the scanner giving you? Does the Canon MP Navigator software not show scanning as an option? Does it show scanning as an option, but fail to start scanning once you tell it to?

Have you tried the Canon tech support page?

Well, my ideal one would’ve been an MP810R, but that doesn’t exist. It’s big isn’t it? The other strong candidate would’ve been the wireless b/g + ethernet hp C7180, but it doesn’t print directly on CD/DVDs.

I will most likely get the MP810, rather than spending more on the MP960. While the extra two colours (colors) may appeal to some, I think the MP810 is enough of a winner. Why can’t you give us the R version, Canon?? I was that close to hunting down an MP800R but the scanning optical resolution was poorer.

Thanks for your input, Erik - much appreciated.

D’oh!

Ethernet cable? What was I thinking. You’re right of course, I meant USB.
