Scanner software has to support that....scanners do not just share like a
printer...would be nice if they did
The vendor has to have software that specifically is made for sharing the
scanner. For example I have an HP Photosmart 6150C which allows this
sharing you are mentioning. I have a few other scanners from the past that
don't....it's all software that comes with the scanner.
What model scanner you have?
