HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M479fdw

Hello,


We have a HP LaserJet MFP M479fdw

 

We are unable to configure the Network Scan Function, which is now strongly located under :

 

Settings > Control Panel Customization > Quick Sets

 

By entering the network path to scan in this format :

 

\\xx.xx.xx.xx\Scanner\

 

and username :

 

DOMAIN\Username

 

We always get this message :

 

The printer is unable to connect to the remote destination. Check your configurations and try again.

 

the network path is in IP format, so it's not a DNS problem,

the username tried a domain admin, so it's not a permission issue

also tried with a local admin user, so it's not a domain issue.

the share path is perfectly accessible from the printer's subnet, so it's not a network issue. 

 

This is the All in 1 machine & the printer is working perfectly through the network. but the issue is only with the scanner.

 

Please find the attached screenshot & suggest ErrorErrorConfigurationConfigurationany solution for this.
