If all things were as they should be, there would be entries in your Windows registry that register IJ Scan Utility as a so-called Autoplay Handler for your scanner's buttons using the Microsoft STI Still Image Application API. Once it fired up, it is going to execute one of the "rules" defined in Canon's quick menu settings, where you configure what should happen, when the buttons are pressed. This tool is supposed to fire up, when you press one of the scanner buttons. If you install the scanner drivers, this is installed, too. Don't blame me, if that happens.Ĭanon ships a software called IJ Scan Utility. If you are not careful, you can break your system. I thought I post this here, so that other people profit from it also - although I must say, I would expect Canon to come up with a decent piece of software that works reliably.ĭISCLAIMER: What I am going to explain involves direct changes of your Windows registry. Someone please help I'd greatly appreciate it.īut after a little bit of searching, I found out a solution that should always work - worked for me on my Canon Lide 120. What app do I need to "register" for this buttons in order for them to work? So I figure that MP Navigator EX is missing from the Mark II download page for a reason - it's for the original 9000F and is not compatible with the Mark II. I thought that would do the trick, but then when I hit the COPY button, I get this dialog box:

When I did that, it actually put that as a choice (the only choice) by Start This Program: I installed that just for the heck of it, since none of the Mark II apps seemed to want to register as a "registered app" for this function.

If I go to the original Canoscan 9000F (NOT the Mark II version) drivers and software page, I see this software called MP Navigator EX. But for every scanner button including COPY, it says "No application is registered for this event." It won't let me select anything other than Take No Action. So I went into the Scanner Properties for the scanner and found this Events tab. When I hit the COPY button, I get this dialog box:

I've installed all available Canon software for Windows 7 (圆4) for this scanner. I'm trying to get the scanner buttons to work with it - particularly the COPY button.
