Just try the latest update as suggested by tsbservice and see if it works.

The issue in this month's Windows 7/Server 208 R2 patches are related to back end authentication issues.
You'll have issues if your scanning is set using one, or both, of the following:
1. Scan destination is set using an IP address instead of a host name
2. You're using a local account, instead of a domain account, to authenticate to the share with the account used also being an administrator on the PC or server hosting the share
An update has also been released to fix the underlying NTLM issue: Microsoft Update Catalog
Currently, it's only available from the Windows Update Catalog site, it hasn't been pushed to workstation Windows Updates or WSUS.
I just had this issue come up last Friday, customer called in saying her scanning to PC was not working. It's a one PC office that has been working fine for months. She was scanning fine all day Wednesday, then first thing Thursday morning it errors out with a "Forward TX Error" under job list > details.
I tried everything I could think of, I figured something was installed that she didn't know about, didn't think to mess with the Windows updates. I ended up just setting her PC to scan to FTP using the old FTP utility. Next time she calls in for service (probably when her IP changes and FTP stops working) I'll look for these updates and try to get her back on SMB.
We are done with SMB scanning. It isn't reliable enough anymore. We are switching everyone to email scanning. Once it is setup it is much easier for user to create new one-touches.
Emphasis on "once it is set up"
I have far too many IT departments who haven't got a clue as to what info/settings they need to supply us in order to get scan to email working, usually those are the ones using office365 or gmail for scanning . But yes, once set up, it is the best method for scanning IMO.
Thank you guys for the updates , you guys are awesome!!!
