And if this is the case then you will not be able to connect to the scanner (which now makes sense that you mentioned not having the shared scanner setting under the Sharing pane of System Preferences). So based on your image I would have to assume that you are not connecting directly to the MP495 via WiFi but connecting to another Mac that is sharing the connection. But my testing has shown that is not the case. So why is a computer name (I assume its the name your iMac is using) is listed? I thought it may be due to you having Printer Sharing enabled your local iMac. When you add a network printer the Location section is blank. What is also interesting to see is that for the printer that you did create using the Canon IJ Network (your default printer) the Location is showing a computer name.

And this does not normally appear in the Add Printer view, so the fact that you can see this is interesting and probably an indicator that your setup is the cause of your issue. The Bonjour entry that is displayed is for the memory slot on the machine, so that you can scan images from an inserted memory card. Based on your previous images (thanks for those) the Add printer window is not showing a Bonjour Multifunction entry for the MP495. So the question is why does the MP495 not appear as a Bonjour Multifunction device.

So it confirms that the ICA driver is okay - MP Navigator uses a different scanner driver. In fact, if you did have the Scan tab and had it selected and then tried to open Image Capture, you get a prompt stating that the application is already in use. Cause the Scan tab that should be appearing in Printers & Scanners uses the same interface as Image Capture. And if you disconnect the MP495 USB cable because you created a new printer for the network connection, then this printer for the USB connection will show as Offline. So is this the networked MP495 showing as Offline? Because if at any time you had connected the MP495 to the Mac then a printer would have been automatically created for this USB connection. The Canon MP495 series device on the Print/Scan pane page shows as Offline.

And even if it was still present it would not impact your ability to see/or not see the MP495 scanner via Image Capture. This was removed in Yosemite and rightly so. There i s no Scanner Sharing option in Services on the Sharing Pane Is it shown with Bonjour Multifunction in the Kind column or Canon IJ Network? With the Default view selected the MP495 should be listed. If you have and the MP is not listed (below is an example of what you should see) then open Printers & Scanners and select to add a printer. For many Yosemite users with the same issue this was resolved with the 10.10.4 update, as Apple returned the mdnsresponder process to assist with network device discovery. With 0 devices showing in Image Capture, and assuming the MP495 is connected to your local network via WiFi, then you may have an issue with Bonjour. However there are 0 devices showing in Image Capture

Is anybody out there that haas the same problem and fixed it or discovered it is unfixable. I can print from the pane and only scan from MP Navigator.

Latest drivers and utilities installed a zillion times I have done it in the past and hope to do it in the future. Will someone please put me out of my misery and tell me it can't be done. I have an iMac and have tried every whichway to operate the Scanner from the Preferences Printers & Scanners Pane. This has been a perennial problem with Canon/Apple.
