Configure Network Scanning for Windows®

To use the machine as a network scanner, the machine must be configured with a TCP/IP address.
  • If you installed the machine following the instructions for a network user, then the machine should already be configured for your network.
  • If your computer is protected by a firewall and is unable to scan when connecting over the network, you may need to configure the firewall settings. If you are using Windows® Firewall and you have installed Multi-Function Suite from the CD-ROM, the necessary firewall settings have already been made.
  • For network scanning, a maximum of 25 clients can be connected to one machine on a network.
