Hi,

Do you have any Windows 2003 server or filers where you can try and scan eliminating issue is with Windows 2008 server or Scanner?

Are you using DNS name in \\server or \\1.2.3.4 ip address?
@ ArneLovius said: This is probably an SMB signing issue.

+1 to that.
see http://support.exinda.com/topic/how-to-disable-smb-signing-on-windows-servers-to-improve-smb-performance 
for instructions if you chose to disable it.
most recent mfds support smb signing.
things to try:
use the computer`s IP address
e.g.
\\192.168.1.99\scans
use the domain prefix for the username
e.g.
damainname\scan2
also check that no firewall or av software is blocking it.
