Can't scan over routed scanner that worked fine on same network?

Prior to being across a router, my multifunction printer (Brother-DCP 8085DN) would happily appear in Image Capture, and scanning worked flawlessly.  It now resides on a separate network segment. 
I deleted and re-added the printer object, using each if IPP, LPD, and HPJD protocols, specifying the IP address and in each instance it recognized and auto-installed a cups driver for that model.  None of these were successful for scanning, although it prints fine.
Any ideas where to start?  I see no traffic failing to pass between the mac and the printer.

Yes, and their scanner driver can't see it.  Their support provided a troubleshooting document, essentially to see if you could ping the printer.  Suffice to say none of that worked or was particularly helpful.
Given that I didn't need the driver when it was on the same subnet, I am trying to figure out what is requiring a local network address to scan, but not to print.

  • I am trying to connect to my Wifi Network. It is a Galaxy Nexus. I am trying to connect to this Hotspot. I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason with this computer I cannot connect.

    So far I have pulled the system configuration file, I have reset safari, I deleted all old passwords from the wifi network in Keychain I restarted both devices. I am at the end here and I cannot get it to work I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason this computer will not connect. It is system wide specifically to my personal hotspot. I can connect fine to any other network (wifi) but just not mine. I have not changed any wifi settings. I have been trying to figure this out. I have a MacBook Pro Late 2006 model running Lion (10.7.5) So any ideas anyone? Please help!

    12. At a WiFi hotspot, you can't get connected.  The most frequent reason is the login screen for the WiFi hotspot is only able to be connected with a single type of browser.  If Safari doesn't work, try Firefox, Chrome, Omniweb, or Opera.

  • 802.1X Athentication Successful but can't ping Default Router. PSK works fine

    Got an interesting scenario. I am labbing out 802.1X authentication for wireless with a Cisco 2504 WLC along with a Windows Server 2012 r2 with AD, DHCP Server, DNS Server, Certificate Services, and NPS. I was able to make the different parts communicate and was able to successfully authenticate with an account I created on AD. Under my windows server event viewer, I received confirmation message: "Network Policy Server granted access to user." I received a valid IP address from the DHCP server. Computer is on the domain. Everything looks like it is working perfectly. I even checked the debug on my WLC looking for the mac address of my device but I received the "Processing Access-Accept mobile <MAC-ADDRESS>" message. 
    Here comes the problem. I created 2 WLAN’s to test. One was PSK while the other was 802.1X. They share the same interface on the WLC, so they have the exact same configurations. On my PSK everything works fine, I can browse Internet and ping devices within the network. On the 802.1X, I am able to ping the controller, but nothing else. Can’t ping gateway nor my dhcp server. Any thoughts?
    Best Regards,
    Sean

    In your testing the device that connected with psk is the same device that connected to TLS? 

  • I am using a Mac OS X Version 10.9.5. Can not get Safari to fully load. Know it is not a network issue as other computers work fine on same network. This unit was recently repaired (hardware issue) and I'm able to use SOME websites.

    I guess the best way to resolve this issue is to reset Safari completely?  I tried doing this by using the Safari Reset option, but no help. I've tried many other options with no positive results.
    Suggestions?

    1. Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
        Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
        Restart the computer.
        Start up in Safe Mode.

    2. Delete Caches.db
        Close all windows and quit all applications.
        Hold "option" key down and click "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
        Select "Library" from the dropdown.
        Library > Caches > com.apple.Safari > Caches.db
        Right click the Caches.db file and select "Move To Trash.
        Close windows and relaunch Safari.
    3. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
        Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
        Turn on those one by one and test.
    Do you have any anti-virus software installed?

    You cannot run PPC software in Lion. Go to Epson's website to see if they have an updated scanner driver. If they don't then you can try using VueScan if it supports your scanner model.

  • Can Printer over network but can't scan over network with Officejet 6500 E710n

    Got an odd problem... I can print all day via my wireless network, I can even ping my printer's IP with no issues.
    I can't scan at all, it keeps giving me connection related error messages (Scanner Unreachable, etc). I checked the "Update IP Address" tool and the IP address was correct. So I figured I would install on a different computer.
    I installed using the software from this website (I have never installed this HP printer on this computer, I always did eprinting from this computer), it worked perfectly, it found the printer almost instantly. Installation worked perfect with no issues, errors, etc.
    Printed the test page perfectly but I still can't scan over the network, I tried both clicking on "HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z" and clicking on both "Scan a document or photo" and "Activate Scan to Computer" and also I get a connection error if I try the "HP Scan" software.
    I ran the "HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility" but it can't find my printer (odd that it found it to install the software and I can print/ping it all day).
     I also ran the "HP Scan Diagnostic Utility 4.2" and it DID find the printer... It also got past the "Connectivity" and "Device Manager" steps and put a check next to them.
    It then failed on the "Windows (WIA) Scan" step. I skip it and it fails on the "HP Twian Scan" after giving me a connection related error message. It will not let me continue the test.
    I have restarted both computers and printer multiple times. I am running Windows 7 on my laptop and Windows XP on my desktop.

    I suggest uninstalling the full feature software from both PCs and re-installing and configuring the software on both.
    Are you using the HP Solution center to scan? It is in Dutch, but the images are the same as what you should see in a correctly installed full feature software package.

  • I GIVE UP on HP - Recco for new printer/scanner that WORKS?

    I have wasted several hours trying to get my brand new HP F4180 All-In-One printer to scan.
    I can print, but I can not scan. I have tried installing the software from the disc, and downloaded the new beta software. The beta software always says installed successfully, then reports 0 bytes installed and HP application folder is empty. I have already tried deleting the folder and uninstalling the printer and reinstalling. I have repaired permissions. I have rebooted several times. Nothing ever installs.
    I have read the forums and found hundreds of complaints and some people seem to have fixed things but nothing has worked for me.
    My time is more valuable than this completely useless printer/scanner. If I didn't need the scanner I wouldn't have bought an all in one.
    Can anyone recommend an all in one printer/scanner with a scanner that works out of the box under Leopard. Epson? Anything that I could buy at the Apple Store retail or Best Buy?
    Would be great if you could scan while attached to an Airport Extreme under Bonjour, but I am guessing I may need a direct USB connection
    If you make a recco and it works, I will promise NEVER to buy anything from HP again. I swear.

    I have a Canon PIXMA MP600 that I bought less than a year ago at the apple store. I just tried scanning with it and it appears to work great under Leopard. Note that it's critical to download the latest drivers from Canon (one of which was updated literally yesterday), and not use the software on the CD that comes with the printer.
    I've played with HP printers before and it seems like the Canon software is smaller and simpler.
    WRT the Airport Extreme, as far as I know you can only print if you have the printer plugged into that, not scan.

  • Recommendations for a Scanner that works with Mac OS 10.6.4

    Hi: I bought my first iMac back in February 2010 and have really been enjoying it. However, I would like to know a good scanner to scan mostly pictures. Any recommendations are welcome.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Any Scanner that supports TWAIN should work fine. Look for that when reviewing scanners. I have an HP multifunction printer that has a scanner and that works fine for me. Although if you are looking for a photo scanner then there are others perhaps better suited for the task out there.
    Here is a nice list of reviews: http://www.macworld.com/products/input_devices/scanners.html

    You cannot use USB. It has to be a network capable printer.. is it?? You did not indicate how it is connected.. but by wireless or ethernet then scanning is possible otherwise not.

  • Scanner that Works with 10.6 Snow Leopard?

    Has anyone found a scanner that works with 10.6 Snow Leopard and also handles 35mm negatives & slides? My HP Scanjet 4570c is “dead in water.” HP has said they will not provide a driver update for this model.

    If you, like me, are ****** off about how poorly HP is handling/not handling this scanner functionality issue then I suggest that you email the CEO, Chairman, and the Board of Directors of HP. I just finished sending my email to all of them. You can do the same by going to the web site listed below and follow the instructions on that web page. When I sent my messages I typed, "Do you care that HP is losing customers?" in the SUBJECT line of my email. I seriously doubt that this will result a solution to our problems, but at least you can let them know that they have lost another customer.

    Hello,
    10.5.8 is the highest OSX it can run.
    TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
    SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
