I get this message when I try to set up webscan "You cannot use this function because it has been disabled. For more information, contact your network administrator or the person who set up the printer"

 

I am both of these things and I cant figure out a way to re-set it up. It has worked in the past, but now it no longer works.

Webscan – located in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) – No additional software

NOTE:  Webscan feature  is not available on Laser printers

If the printer is on the network,

  • Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar
  • Tab Settings > Security > Administrator Settings > make sure Webscan is checked / enabled
  • Click Apply to save any changes

Next

  • Tab Scan > Webscan 
  • Set up Webscan the way you want it - for example, set the Source to ADF - Scan a test document using Webscan

 

Examples
