Microtek ScanWizard Pro's User Manual page 5

The IP address is identified by dot-segregated four-position numbers, should be within the range 0 to
255 (e.g., 172.16.17.38). The first three numbers are common to users in a work group, and the fourth
number is unique to each user on the network. To know the network scanner server's IP address, select
Scanner Probe from the Scanner menu on the server station. The connected local scanners will be
shown in the Scanner Probe window with the related information.
6. Specify the port number of the server.
All connected, shared scanners on the network should use the same server port number; otherwise, the
shared scanners will not be found on the network. The default port number is 303.
7. Specify the time-out period for the server search.
This edit box allows you to set the search lead time for the remote scanner. Use the up/down button to
increase/decrease time for time-out, and input an acceptable time-out period (1 to 60 seconds), after
which the server stops searching on the network.
8. Click Test Connection to see "found" scanners and related information (including Server Location,
Connection Status, and Number of Scanner), or click OK to perform auto-searching without showing
related information on the scanners.

Server Location edit box and the "Automatically find scanner server" option is unchecked, the Test
Connection button will be dimmed and
