They don't tell you in any of the instructions when setting up the printer/scanner that the scanner is turned off and you can't turn it on it settings.
This printer is ideal for all of my needs, has a large screen display, quick printing and scanning. I recommend this printer for small to medium size offices. It is a great personal desk top size printer too. Hope you get to experience what I do everyday 6 days a week :) Gotta get one first though !!
