If MacOS knows your printer is both a printer and a scanner, it will show a "Print/Scan" tab at the top of System Preferences / Printers. If it's not there, your printer is either misreporting or your driver is not operating properly. Try re-downloading the driver from the mfr website if they have one. > On Nov 10, 2018, at 5:56 PM, Carl Hoefs <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hmm.

The "Import from scanner..." menu item in Preview is grayed out. The printer works fine as it always has. I can manually copy items. But for some reason Preview doesn't see it as a scanner anymore. >>> >>> I've "Reset printing system...", and added the printer again. I've power-cycled the printer, reboot the Mac (High Sierra).
