I have a WiFi-connected printer and scanner (Canon MG 5700) that I use from Windows 10. One of the nice features of Windows 10 is that I never had to install any drivers or bloatware to get it working. Windows automatically discovered the printer on the network, and it actually works.
The solution is really thanks to the comment by Thijs van Dien. Before I found that I had already tried several things. Including moving the printer to the wired network, but I don't think that makes any difference.
I had the same issue with an HP scanner and it was an IPv6 / IPv4 problem, try to disable IPv6 on the scanner and see if it works.When my PC tried to connect to the scanner with IPv4 worked fine but when it used IPv6 there was something wrong going on.Rebooting the PC flipped the coin between IPv6 and IPv4 and sometimes worked, sometimes not.
If you would like to find and analyze all devices in your computer network, the most comfortable way is to use the feature-rich Network Scanner that is built in as a tool in NetSetMan. Scan your network for computers, printers and shared resources quickly and easily.
You can only add a scanner group to a custom network if all scanners in that group belong to either the default network or the same custom network. If you try to add a scanner group that contains a scanner already assigned to a different custom network, Tenable Vulnerability Management prevents you from adding the scanner group to the network until you resolve the conflict.
If any conflicts are present, Tenable Vulnerability Management displays a message. You need to remove a scanner from the scanner group to resolve the conflict. For more information about removing scanners from scanner groups, see Edit a Scanner Group.
Tenable Nessus is the most comprehensive vulnerability scanner on the market today. Tenable Nessus Professional will help automate the vulnerability scanning process, save time in your compliance cycles and allow you to engage your IT team.

Capable of storing sufficient scan settings and scanned image destinations with up to 1,000 jobs and 5,000 address book entries registrable on the scanner, the scanner is designed to meet your diverse scanning needs.
The scanner is equipped with a web application server and web browser, allowing access and operation of the web application without the use of other devices. A customizable SDK is also available to provide flexibility for diverse applications.
Manage up to 1,000 scanners at the same time via the supplied Administration Tool for SF400 software. Update firmware, back up and restore configurations, and perform other operations for all scanners on your network with efficiency from an administrator computer.
The cellular network scanner app works in tandem with the scanner device to allow you to view, tune and store cellular tower and carrier dadta. A survey is performed by linking the scanner to the app via Bluetooth on either an iOS or Android device.
Note: If nothing appears in the Search for Network box, make sure your product is connected to the same wired or wireless network as your computer. If your product is connected to the same network and the box is still blank, contact Epson Support.
An increasing number of smart devices - like IP cameras, smart televisions, and storage devices - now connect to home networks.
Many devices have security issues that attackers can use to take control of them or the home network itself, which can lead to privacy leaks or much worse.
HouseCall for Home Networks scans all of the devices connected to your home network to identify potential risks and offer suggestions about how to eliminate them.
You should use HouseCall for Home Networks frequently, as new vulnerabilities and network risks may appear after the first scan. Using HouseCall for Home Networks is free. HouseCall for Home Networks can also detect when new devices join your network.
Before using this on a network, you should be the administrator of the home network, or you should have access permission from the administrator. Additionally, you should be the administrator of the devices in the network which would be scanned by HouseCall for Home Networks, or you should have access permission from the administrator of the devices.
Devices must be on and connected to the network when a scan is performed. Additionally, because most mobile devices disconnect from Wi-Fi automatically in order to save battery power, they may not be detected.
Hello
I am looking for a scanner app like Vuescan or Image scan that works over a LAN / WIFI network.I cannot see anything in the software packages and my researches have been fruitless.
Any thoughts would be most welcome
Thanks
Brian,
Thank you very much for your concise overview of what is available.
It looks like I am starting to appreciate the subtle difference between home style printer / scanners and scanners. Epson Scan 2 looks to be generic driver for their scanners but does not recognize my printer / scanner. From what I can gleen on the web, the XP-750 is not on the list. With the Epson Scan 2 installed Skanlite sees the driver, but cannot connect to the machine over the network, confirming what I think gerry66uk was insinuating, that the driver needs to be the right one.
Network security issues are still the cause of many data breaches. This makes perimeter network vulnerability scanning, one of the baseline vulnerability assessment exercises any organization should routinely subject themselves to. Perimeter network vulnerability tests help make sure that no network devices, web servers or other public-facing network assets are susceptible to trivially exploitable vulnerabilities.
During a network vulnerability scan, an automated network vulnerability scanner checks for potential attacker entry points. Such a tool attempts to identify all network devices on your network and all network services exposed by these devices. Then, it checks if those services expose vulnerabilities, for example, old and vulnerable software versions.
Network vulnerability scanning looks for network services that should not be exposed and vulnerable versions of hardware and software. Web vulnerability scanning looks for vulnerabilities in web services that are exposed by definition and for errors introduced by web developers. The two types of scans are quite different.
Most businesses are migrating to the cloud so there are fewer network exposure points. Therefore, we believe that network scanning is now less important than web scanning. In the case of web technologies, you need network scanning primarily if you host your own web servers at your premises, not in the cloud. However, to be safe, you should regularly perform both types of scans.
Acunetix is a specialized web vulnerability scanner, the pioneer of such technology. Network scanning in Acunetix is done with the help of another pioneer and leader, OpenVAS. Therefore, with Acunetix, you get two best-in-genre products working together using a single interface. You cannot get that from competing products, which are network scanners with limited-capability web vulnerability scanning add-ons.
So I had this idea: why not use Wireshark as a scanner? Instead of actively scanning machines I could just start Wireshark or a similar sniffing program and watch how machines interact with one another in the network with the data being stored in a database.
There are commercial tools that exist that do this. They don't listen on the machines themselves, but you take a mirror of your network ports and basically stuff your entire network traffic down a few trunks into the box. The box then performs real-time analysis.
EMCO Network Software Scanner is designed to perform basic software audit operations in local networks. You can use it to extract information about installed software from PCs located in Windows domains and workgroups. All operations with network PCs are performed remotely and invisible for end users. No client installation or special configuration are required to collect software inventory data remotely from network PCs.
How does the software audit process work? You should specify the group of network PCs to be scanned or let the application scan all available PCs in the network. Also, you have to specify the credentials with an administrative access to the remote PCs. That's all you need to start a scan. When a scan is finished, you can see its results on a screen and export them to a file.
What are the main benefits of the application? It doesn't use WMI to collect software inventory info, hence it can be used in networks where WMI is disabled. In addition, the application is designed to work in large-scale networks including thousands of PCs.
The application allows scanning Windows computers in a local network to extract information on applications installed on every PC. The reported information includes the application name, version and vendor, installation date and installation size, as well as other fields displayed in the Windows Programs and Components dialog.
All information collected during network scans is automatically saved into a database. When the network is scanned next time, the actual software inventory information can be compared with the results of one of the previous scans to detect applications that were installed or uninstalled in the meantime and display them in a special view.
