I need to network the scan function of a Gestetner DSm635 grayscale printer/copier/scanner to an office of computers. This machine is already networked to print. My IT department told me that networking the scanner was not possible which doesnt make any sense. How can I network this scanner.
Please help,

Most IT departments don't know how. They won't admit that but it is true. You already print to the thing so all that has to happen is setting up SMB shares on the computers and telling the scanner where to scan. Your very best option would be to contact your printer repair company and ask if they have a connectivity or networking specialist that could help you. If they are a good company they may even call your IT people and help them help you. And of course nothing technical comes for free.
I hope that helps.
The only real problem would be finding the software driver for your machine.When your driver for your scan function is loaded it will assign an IP address for the scanner.without the software,your out of luck.I'll look online tonight for it and let you know if I find it.
