Canon MX310 Scanning

Why oh why can we not scan wirelessly?
I installed something called sane-twain, but that didn't work either.
I then decided to remove all scangear drives that came with the canon and now can't even scan when plugged in to MBP direct.

What is the solution?
There must be a solution.

Please Help.

There is simply no solution. You cannot use this all-in-one Canon as a network scanner. Sane Twain is for many SCSI and USB connected scanners, it is not for network scans. Connect your Canon directly to your computer and reinstall software if you want to use it as a scanner.

No, there must be some sort of solution as there are some who claim their hp and epson printers allow this. There just must be a solution. I'm an internet programmer and believe nothing on a computer is impossible. This is my mission.... lol...
Plus my printer cost a dam fortune. hehe
