Epson MFP scanner - registering as a scan destination

Post by tufnel »

Hi,

New installation of Mint Mate on the same network as an Epson WF-3540. I installed Epson Scan 2 flatpak (v. 6.7.63.0) and am able to discover and initiate scans successfully from the PC. However, I'd like to be able to register the Mint PC as a scan destination from the WF-3540's control panel 'Scan to PC' function. Has anyone been able to do this successfully?

Thanks in advance!

I had a quick look at the on-lne manual and as expected the usual disclaimer about not supporting linux was seen.
In a Windows environment you would expect to see a method where it allowed scanned documents to be stored on some server location. I scouted around the manual and could find no way of configuring the destination in a linux environment.
