[Misc] Scanning to Printer

[colin]

I am trying to scan from a black and white 4500i to a small HP network laser printer. I have setup the destination in the address book using the following;

Name: Color Printer

Anything you guys see I am missing? Wrong username?

Re: Scanning to Printer

Did you try it without any username ?

Re: Scanning to Printer

Why are you trying to scan to a printer?

Printers print, scanners scan

WTF?????????????

Re: Scanning to Printer

Because you can color scan directly to a color printer from a mono MFP. And it's geeky !

I did try it without a username, no go.

Re: Scanning to Printer

What error code did you get ? That should give you a hint of what direction to go.

Re: Scanning to Printer

No error code, the MFP blinks memory and eventually stops... and nothing out of the printer. Kyocera support says it depends on what machine you are sending the scan to, in this case it was an HP. I don't think that is the problem though. That printer does not know that the image being sent to it is coming from a copier/scanner. It just sees raw data coming across on port 9100. So i don't know. I have given up.

I also tried sending on port 21 as Kyocera recommended. Nothing. Interestingly enough when running the "Test" to test the connection it just cycles over and over... never comes up with an error or "successful".

Re: Scanning to Printer

does the hp have pdf direct print availability? you should be able to create a folder on a pc and drag pdf into it and see if that prints...is so then scan to that folder from the kyocera
