hello everyone, I have a gestetner 3224c (DSc224) which is set up to print/scan via their network. The user only scans to 1 PC (XP) and uses desktopbinder. When they scan sometimes it scans ok but then when they try to scan again "NO RESPONSE FROM SCANNER 36851" is shown on the pc. Also sometimes they can preview the scanned image then when the scan button is pressed the same error code appears. I have downloaded the latest twain driver & desktopbinder version and the latest firmware is on the MFP. I also increased the memory from 256MB to 384MB. Not sure what to do next apart from swapping the print/scan controller over with another MFP that is working ok in our showroom. Thanks for any advice.

Look out the window and tell us what color the sky is on your planet.
We will all pray for you.
Open a command prompt and enter "ping -t <ip address>" this will do a continuous ping to the IP specified so you can see if you have any connection problems. Run a few scans and see if the connection drops or the return time jumps over a millisecond.
I've seen failing cables, hubs, NIC's, poorly configured drivers, and overloaded switches all cause similar problems.73 DE W5SSJComment

The TWAIN driver uses port 1022 on the PC.
I had it happen a few (OK, more than a few) years ago where an anti-virus utility on the PC was blocking that port, and causing the same error code you are seeing.
As I recall, it didn't happen every time; sometimes a scan would sneak through - that was the really weird part - you'd think it would always pass or always not, but noooooo.
After I allowed that port to be an exception, all was well.“I think you should treat good friends like a fine wine. That’s why I keep mine locked up in the basement.” - Tim HawkinsComment
