Hi,
I recently picked up a toshiba estudio 453 from out front of a school yard. I've been using it as a copier, and it works great...but i can't connect it to my network, or computer, or print via USB to use the machine as a scanner, or as a printer. It's locked as a copier.
From my understanding, I need some kind of firmware upgrade on the machine to have it communicate with my computer, so I can use the print and the scan functions?
I carried this thing up 3 flights of extremely narrow fire escape stairs and don't want to have to take it back down.
Toshiba told me that I have to pay some hundreds of dollars to have a tech come to service a 20 year old printer. LOL no wonder these things get thrown to the curb!!!
Anyway, just want to give this thing some love. Would appreciate help.
Thanks for any advice,
-S.
