scanner sharing and firewall on Mac OS X Lion Server

I have a working scanner setup on my Mac mini Lion server which allows me to use the scanner from any other Mac in my network, but when I activate the firewall on the server, scanner sharing no longer works.


According to the support documentation I enabled ports 5100 TCP (Mac OS X camera and scanner sharing) and 5353 UDP (Bonjour (mDNSResponder), AirPlay, Home Sharing, Printer Discovery) but that doesn't help. Turning off the firewall will make it work again.


Seems to me that I am missing some port or have the wrong ones,any idea what ports I am missing?


Thx,

Niek
