Do you have the same model? must admit, as afternoon is progressing, I am not very happy with my purchase, and the time and noise it takes to print 1 A4 doc is much slower than my previous canon Pixma MP160.

Re: Where does scan go

Hi Frenchman, I have All In OneJ7580.  I agree Im not too happy with it, it also autoformats any handwritten text to weird language text, instead of scanning like a copy, like a photocopier would do...currently about to call helpdesk grr.

Sometimes they turn up in My Scans, sometimes they dont....

Thanks anyways.

Do a search for the folder....Start....Search

 

The folder is in My Documents most of the time.

Re: Where does scan go

Sorry forgot to ask. Are you using Windows XP, Vista or 7?

 

Any of the above operating systems you would have 'My pictures' folder and 'My scans' would be under that.
