Cannot Save a Scan to a Shared Folder Over a Network

If you cannot save a scan to a shared folder when scanning over a network, or saving takes a very long
time, try these solutions:
• Make sure that the computer is turned on and is not running in a power-saving mode, such as sleep or
standby.
• Make sure you created a shared folder on your computer (Windows).
• Make sure the network folder does not already contain a file of the same name. If so, rename the file
and try again.
• Make sure you added the correct user permissions.
• If you registered the shared folder path to your product's control panel contact list or entered the path
manually to scan, make sure you used the correct path.
• Make sure the address in your product's control panel contact list and the address of the shared folder
are the same.
• Make sure the user name and password are correct on the computer and product's control panel
Contacts list. Also, make sure that the password has not expired.
• If you are using a laptop and the IP address is set to DHCP, the IP address may change when
reconnecting to the network. Obtain the IP address again.
• Make sure your network type is not set to Public network. You cannot scan to a shared folder when
using a public network. Set the forward settings for each port.
• If saving your scan to a shared folder takes a very long time, make sure the DNS setting and the DNS
domain name are correct. Contact your network administrator for instructions.
• Temporarily disable the computer's Firewall and security software. If this clears the error, check the
settings in the security software.
• Make sure the access rights for the user in the contacts list are added on the Sharing tab and Security
tab of the shared folder's properties. Also, the permissions for the user should be set to "allowed".
• Make sure there is enough disk space on the computer. Increase the free space on the computer, if
necessary.
