Scan Button Event

Guest

The problem i have is with a canon PIXMA MP600. I can't for some reason
change the program that handle scan events. Here's what happens when i try:

I click Control Panel, Scanners and Cameras, double click WIA Canon MP600,
Then the Events Tab, Select "Save To PC (Colour Button)", Then change the
radio box from "Prompt for which program to run" to "Start This Program (MP
Navigator Ver3.0)", Then I Click OK, I Then get a dialog box as detailed
below:

Title: Event Registration Failed
Body: The attempt to change the register event handler failed. Please make
sure the device is turned on and connected properly.
Buttons Available: OK Only

Its parent process is ImagingDevices.exe running on Windows Vista Home
Premium 32-bit.

My device is on and firmly plugged in. I have tried re-installing the
drivers twice. one with and once without full re-boot.

Canon are denying it is a problem with their software or drivers but seeing
as the guy had never touched vista in his life i hold this as opinion not
fact.

Was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem?

Thank you in advance for your help.

I have the same problem - different scanner and different drivers. Here's my
posting describing it:

I recently installed Nuance PaperPort 11 for Vista onto my computer. I also
installed the Vista drivers for my HP ScanJet 5590.

I should be able to assign the five buttons on the front of the 5590 using
the Events tab on the Scanners and Cameras Control Panel applet in Vista to
launch PaperPort from any of those buttons. I should then be able to assign
particular scan profiles for each of those buttons from the Oprions/Buttons
menus in PaperPort. The latter cannot be done without the former!

However, when I attempt to change the Action on the Event menu in the
Control Panel applet, I receive an "Event registration failed" error that
states, "The attempt to change the registered event handler failed. Please
make sure the device is turned on and connected properly."

The device is turned on and connected properly and functions.
