Hi there,
Can anyone help me. We have a issue with a Kyocera FS-8025MFP which we cannot scan using SMB. Does anyone know a way around this or a FTP utility which may work??
Regards,
Alan.
iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)
The inability to scan using SMB first appeared in 10.7, after Apple implemented their own version of SMB.
On Lion there was a couple of ftp utilities available. One was called Lion FTPD Enable. You can get it from MacUpdate. I assume it will also work on 10.8 but I haven't tried it.
Personally I get users to enabled FTP via Terminal.
With the Terminal application open, type;
sudo -s launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist
Press Enter and when prompted, enter your admin account password and press Enter.
Now that FTP is running on the Mac you can configure the Kyocera to scan to the desired folder.

I enable FTP in terminal using this technique and had good results with scanning, but now every time i try to shut down my mac mini, it kernel panics and starts back up. Could this be related? I reninstalled OSX 10.8, and the kernel panics don't happen anymore.
FULL EXPLANATION. CREDIT TO APPLE SUPPORT AND THE POSTER OF THE TERMINAL COMMAND.
HOPEFULLY THIS SAVES YOU SEVERAL FRUSTRATED HOURS.
