Software Troubleshooting

This section describes troubleshooting problems and solutions for
operating the supplied software (CaptureOnTouch).

If scanning is too slow

1 Close other running programs, if any.

2 Scanning can be slowed down by memory shortage caused by

memory-resident applications such as anti-virus programs. Close
such memory-resident programs if necessary to free up memory
space.

3 When insufficient hard disk space is available, the scanner may be

unable to create the necessary temporary files for scanned data.
Delete unneeded data on the hard disk to free up more space.

4 Scanning is slow if the computer's USB port is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0

compliant.

5 If using a common USB cable that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant,

replace the cable with the supplied compliant cable.

6 When the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub that is

not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant, remove the hub and connect the
scanner directly to the computer.

If scanned image files cannot be opened in an application

1
Scanned images saved as multi-page TIFF files can be opened only
by programs that support this file format.
2 Images saved as compressed TIFF files (single- as well as multi-
page) can only be opened by programs that support the compressed
format. This can occur with programs that are not compatible with
CaptureOnTouch. In this case, select "None" as the image file
compression format before scanning.
CaptureOnTouch plug-in or Captiva Cloud cannot be used
Install .NET framework if it is not yet installed.

Why is my scanner not turning on?

A possible reason for your scanner not turning on could be that it is not properly connected to a power source. Please ensure that the power cable is securely plugged into both the scanner and a functioning power outlet.

How can I fix blurry scans?

Blurry scans can occur if the document is not placed flat on the scanner bed or if the scanner lens is dirty. Gently clean the scanner lens using a lint-free cloth and ensure the document is positioned correctly and evenly on the flatbed to obtain clear scans.

My scanned documents have streaks on them, what should I do?

Streaks on scanned documents may be caused by dust or debris on the scanner glass or the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). Clean the glass surface or ADF carefully using a soft, lint-free cloth to resolve this issue.

How can I scan multiple pages into a single file?

To scan multiple pages into a single file, utilize the document feeder or enable the duplex scanning feature if available. Adjust the scanning settings to save the output as a multi-page PDF file or use specialized software provided by Canon for advanced scanning options.
