Cannot Save a Scan to a Shared Folder Over a Network

time, try these solutions:
• If you cannot scan to a shared folder over the network, make sure you did the following:

• If you registered the shared folder path to your product's control panel contact list or entered the
path manually to scan, make sure you used the correct path.
• Make sure the network folder does not already contain a file of the same name. If so, rename the file
and try again.
