    SMB is only available through network. You might be able to use TWAIN scanning through USB, but not all models support it.

      Yup. Ruben is right.
      2 Problems:
      1: SMB scanning via USB is IMPOSSIBLE
      2: SMB scanning over a network to a WIN 7 box will require updated firmware if it hasn't been done - but FTP doesn't

        If the firmware is not up to speed update it. Search the forums there are many posts for smb scanning on W7 HP.........

            Additionally, try searching for scanning to Windows 7 threads on here for the answer, there are loads of them.
