Cannot setup scanning to network folder for a Sharp MX-2300N

Installed 2 new machines in an office that are Windows 7. Everything worked great until I had to set up the copier to scan to a folder on the new computer as the old XP machine is no longer in use.  The copier is a Sharp MX-2300N.

For the life of me I cannot get it to work. Whenever I try I get error code CE-00 and I cannot find what that code means anywhere. The most I found was someone saying it definitely is a connection error but that isnt as specific of an answer that I was looking for.

I have tried setting up the scan to folder several ways including the following:
\\computername\folder
\\ipaddress\folder
//computername/folder
//ipaddress/folder
\\computername
\\ipaddress
\\COMPUTERNAME\FOLDER
computername\folder
ipaddress\folder
computername
ipaddress

I mean seriously, I am out of variations on the same thing.

Every computer can print to it but I cant scan to any of the computers. Please save me from this machine.

I have no idea why but I work with sharp copiers and have heard about this issue and have found that uninstalling Windows Live Mail on the windows 7 computers will allow it to work.  As to what in Windows Live is making it not work I have no idea.
I have the exact same issue.
What i ended up doing was downloading a free FTP Server (filezilla) and just setting it up with FTP as a work around.
