Issues with scanning from Sharp MX2700N after replacing our wireless router.

I had to replace the wireless router in our office that all of our (8)computers connect through. There is also a wireless router that is attached to the copier. I was able to get into that router and change the settings so that we were able to print again. However, I have been unable to scan to computers on the network which I was able to do prior to changing the router. I have verified the IP address is correct. I am using Sharpdesk and I did try opeing the Network Scanner Tool today and having it search for available scanners, it acted like it found it- but I still couldn't scan to my computer. The only other thing I can think of trying is to uninstall and reinstall the driver software. Should that fix it, or is there an easier way?

Driver software wont affect the scanner functions unless its twain via USB. Sharpdesk is weird and thst unit can scan to smb, ftp, and smtp very easy. check DNS settings. Try putting the copier in dhcp mode and let it pull the TCP/IP info from the router again, then set the static address back to what it needs to be. Also turn the firewall in the router off.

As far as I know, Windows XP OS works much better with WEP encryption rather than WPA. Changing the security encryption of your router might resolve your issue but I would leave the decision to you if you really want to change it.

Error code u2-10 on a sharp mx2700n photocopier

U2-10 SRAM user authentication index check sum error. I know, gibberrish right? To clear this error, put the machine in "simulation mode" by pressing "c" "*" "p" "*". then type 16, press the copy button, then press "execute" then press "yes". Hit the "ca" button to go back to ready. This should clear the error code. If the code returns, then the PCU PWB board needs to be replaced. I hope this helps.

Sharp-MX2700N Maintenance Code VK

VK = 100,000 pages printed on the developer counter or 715,000 revolutions of the developer unit (as mixing can occur even when pages are not being printed). Developer can break down over time and or the seals can be damaged - so service by a technician is indicated. If maintenance was recently performed and the developer replaced then the counter needs to be reset.
