The following FAQs will help you troubleshoot network problems.

The firewall on your computer might prevent the computer 
from connecting to the machine. You need to configure the 
firewall settings to allow connection between them.
• When using the configuration utility (Set the IP Address):

If you cannot search the machine when using configuration 
utility "Set the IP Address", you need to disable the firewall 
during the setting. For information on disabling the firewall, 
refer to the manual or online help of your operating system 
or firewall software.

If you cannot search the machine when using the 
connection utility "SC-Scan A", you need to add SC-Scan A 
and UDP port number "19540" to the firewall exception list. 
For information on adding SC-Scan A and UDP port number 
"19540" to the firewall exception list, refer to the manual or 
online help of your operating system or firewall software.

The device server allows you to use the scanner function of 
the machine over a network. Note that multiple computers 
cannot connect to the scanner function of the machine at the 
same time.

–

Supported operating systems are Windows 2000, Windows 
XP and Windows Vista. TCP/IP needs to be available.

The major difference is whether the connection to the 
scanner/printer function of the machine from the computers 
on the network is 1:1 basis (device server) or 1:n basis (print 
server).
SC-Scan A establishes a connection to the scanner function 
and enables you to use it as if it was connected locally to your 
computer. Therefore, if the scanner function is accessed by a 
computer (in use by another user), the scanner function 
cannot be shared with other computers.
