  1. Windows 10 SCAN application is broken not working WINDOWS FAX AND SCAN WORKS!!!


    The Windows 10 application "Scan" has the following problems With the CanoScan 4400F:

    1. Preview: Previews only a too small portion of the scan bed and the resize function only allows the scan size to be reduced even further.
    2. Scan Fails: Fails immediately with the completely uninformative dialog box:

      Problem Scanning [title bar]
      Something went wrong. Please try again. [body text]
      Close [button]

      [Big surprise! It doesn't work no matter how many times you "try again".]
    3. WORK AROUND: Use the "Windows Fax and Scan" application instead. It works!
      a. Click "windows" button with the four quadrant windows flag. Type "Windows Fax and Scan". Press the "Enter" button.
      b. To get into scan mode, click the "scan" not "fax" button on the lower left of the "Windows Fax and Scan" application.
      c. Now click "New Scan" at the top left right below the menu bar to get the "New Scan" dialog box.
      d. On the bottom of this dialog box, click the "Preview" button.
      e. When the preview scan completes, resize to the desired size by dragging the square handles on the corners of the dashed box surrounding your preview.
      f. Now press the "Scan" button. The result will be place in the "Documents\Scanned Documents" folder.

    Question: How many more decades must we wait for the "Scan" application to be fixed???????

    :)
