MP301 SMB scan to Win7 authentication error

[copyaction]

802.11 enabled should be a "no". When creating a separate user profile for scans, I have always had to select "run as administrator" in order to get it to work. BTW, you can have 5 brand new pc's of the same model and 2 out of the 5 will have scanning issues that the others don't. Different builds, I guess. Drives me nuts.

Thanks btw it is Windows 7 Professional, and I did just switch the user to administrator and still no luck

Just to add 2 cents, and agree with Mika...

I was called by a colleague to help set up scanning to a single PC for an mp c400 the other day. He's not very Network savvy, and I assumed it would be something simple.
I updated firmware, and spent nearly the next 2 hours trying to get it to scan to folder, even re-enabling smb1. No joy.
Never did figure it out. I set up FTP scanning in 2 minutes and left.
A week earlier, I had the same problem on an MP 3352.
Set it up on one Windows 10 PC in 5 minutes, could not get the other one to connect no matter what.

setup filezilla server and be done with it

I just set it up to scan to FTP. I wasted too much time on this one.
but thanks to everyone for the tips.

make sure 3rd party software such as a firewall isn't blocking it... i have had that happen.
