Scanning with Acrobat 9 Pro with Canon MX870 Way too slow... Help

[larryis1a]

After using this program and printer for a number of years to successfully scan documents (both color and B&W), all of a sudden the scanning is taking an extraodinarily long amount of time.  I have already tried changing the "data transfer mode" from native to memory mode in Acrobat Pro 9.0, and also have deleted and reinstalled the full suite of printer driver software for the Canon Pixima MX870 within my Windows 10 operating system.  Any help to restore performance to scan from printer to Acrobat 9.0 to create PDFs would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Larry
