For Mac: If you don't have your firewall enabled, your ports are open. However, you may have to open your router ports with your router software.
Here is how to open ports in Windows...

( 0 / 0 )Scanning to SMB is very easy but its best to have a couple of strategies in mind...
1. (basic scanning to smb...) Use the user account on the desired pc only if its an administrator account... Setup a shared folder.... Maker sure the user account is not on any domain... It must be the computers' own personal login account... Make sure the user account can get in the folder. Make a shortcut on the desktop pointing to the shared folder... This scenario only fails if user account password is changed...
2. (basic scan to smb with network credentials...) Do the same as option 1 but make sure the user network account has full rights to the folder and a shortcut to the folder is on his desktop... This fails for reasons specified in option 3
3. (complex scan to smb with network credentials.) Setup shared folder and make sure that its accessible from only a network user account with shortcut on that network user desktop. This can fail if there are problems with active directory or the server has been updated or there is an issue with group policy or user changes their password...
4. (very complex scan to smb with network credentials...) Same as 3 but the customer wants multiple network accounts to have access to multiple shared folders with one to one relationships... in other words no one can see whats in anyone else folder... this can fail for the same reason option 3 fails. Never do this, you are asking for headaches... if you do then explain to the customer that they can't change any passwords or it will start failing...
5. (best approach for basic smb.) Create an account specifically geared for scanning and make sure its not a user account... the copier logs in... scans and then logs out... the user never touches it...
6. (best approach for smb with network credentials...) Have the network admin create an acount just for the copier... Have him create a folder or series of folders on the server... Have him create one to one relationships between network users and shares if that is called for and then use your windows xp laptop to login to the one of the shared folder with the login, password and domain supplied... If the login does not work then the network person will have to help you to come up with a way to access the folders... This can be done either by trying alternate credential configurations or trying a form of basic scan to smb on the server...
A hint: when your client starts talking about security and refuses to give you the password and you start seeing a domain is involved. Its time to step away from the network... Tell your client to get a hold of the network administrator... You will need one test account to verify your settings and you will need to know its password... a cagey client makes your job that much harder... A network administrator really does not want to be there so he will do whatever it takes to make your job easier.

( 3 / 25 )| A continuous ink system (CIS), also known as a continuous flow system (CFS), bulk feed ink system, or an off-axis ink delivery system is a method for delivering a large and practically unlimited volume of liquid ink to a comparatively small inkjet printhead. Many business and professional grade printers incorporate a continuous ink system in their design to increase the speed and volume of printing capacity. Some aftermarket companies also build retrofit accessories to convert certain models of consumer-grade printers into continuous flow systems. | ||||
|
Many CIS systems have been developed to cover most Epson, HP, Canon, and other printers. These bulk feed systems also allow users to use inexpensive aftermarket inkjet inks as well as specialty inks for T-Shirt transfers or Black and White inks for B&W printing. These options have allowed users to produce specialty prints at a fraction of the cost of purchasing special cartridges or using more expensive printing solutions. Retrofit continuous ink tanks designs vary, most incorporate a constant level, barometric pressure design. Constant level CIS delivers a smooth flow of ink to the cartridges as needed. Front tank is vented to atmosphere, negative air pressure in the back tank delivers ink to the cartridges. |
