    Buy a small hub/switch and place the PCs and device on the same network. Internet connection is an optional.

      Scan to a laptop (Scan-to-Folder) using a cross-over cable is always possible. Create a shared folder on your laptop and make sure the machine has write permissions.

        Yes this will work as long as your setup is correct and the machine and the pc have the same ip scheme, but not the same ip address.
