An HP LaserJet M521DN set to 192.168.20.36 subnet 255.255.0.0 won't scan to a shared folder on a Server 2003 Server set to 192.168.0.9 subnet 255.255.0.0. &nbsp;***NOTE: IT WORKS IF THE SCANNER'S ADDRESS IS 192.168.0.217***. &nbsp;Also, we specified the IP (not the server name) in the &quot;scan to&quot; settings of the scanner to eliminate DNS from being a problem. &nbsp;Why won't the scanner scan to 192.168.0.9 when its address is 192.168.20.36?

IP conflict scanning to a Server

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.

Printers and Scanners

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
