[Misc] BizHub 350 scan directly to PC

[Davidhkii]

Is this possible? To NOT go through a network but to go directly to the computer, like in the olden days? If so, how do I do it? Looks like the only USB port on the thing is for using the 350 as a printer. thanks.

[ck1]

The answer is "NO". You must connected to the network if you want to use the MFP as a scanner.

You should be able to set up TWAIN scanning with the TWAIN driver if the hard drive is installed in the machine. I believe you can do this over a USB connection.

cross over cable and set up the network settings then smb scanning.

Mr Spock is correct...2 NICs connected together is a (very) basic network. As long as the IP scheme is configured correctly for both MFPs, you should be able to set up SMB, FTP scanning and printing. Emujo
