Can this be set up to scan to a network shared folder so that all users can use it with out software installed on each workstation?

Yes you can. I have two of these scanners in two different offices. They are wired into the system and available to any computer on the network that has the local workstation.They work on wireless or hard wired but they cannot use both at the same time.

Yes it can. Mine writes to my QNAP NAS. I use the Shortcuts feature to have different soft buttons to store to different network folders (receipts, finance, misc) as well as sending emails to different people or groups. Overall a very good scanner. I previously used an Epson GT-S50 which was not networkable. Both are excellent/reliable at scanning.

I set up the scanner to scan to a folder on my network (Mac) so this seems possible.

It shouldn't matter what OS you are running. As long as your OS can map a network drive it will work

Yes.You can scan an image on the printer and any PC on your network can access that image.

Yes, using remote control software (that doesn't require someone at home to enter an access code, like Teamviewer) or with the iTwin remote access hardware device (which gets you access to your entire machine at home).

yes, it is easy to map as a network drive.I have mapped it to both Windows 7 and 8, as well as Linux

short answer is yes. From their website... http://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/business_file_sharing_windows_mac_linux

You don't mention if this is a Home network or one for an Office with many users. This would make a huge difference in the way to go. On a home network just share it from the computer it is running from, on a larger network I would agree for a user friendly setup go with the Cisco-Linksys.

This is just a Keyboard, Video and Mouse(KVM) with Audio. It will NOT help with printers or scanners. For that, you'll probably need a network.

should not be a problem as long as your scanner program is loaded on both computers or a program that will control your scanner is loaded!

Yes, as long as both computers are on the same network they should be able to share.

To scan to different computers, the printer and the computers have to be on the same subnet. This did not work for us because we use multiple subnet since our network is large. The computers will be displayed by the computer name. So you could make a chart listing each user with the computer name and tape it to the printer. FYI - You can scan to Network Folders if you have a file server or you share a folder out. MAX is 10 Network Folders. If you enter the email addresses in there the MAX is 15. You can manually type in a email address once the MAX is reached but it will not save. So it is best to use but Network Folders and email address together.

While we don't have it set up to do so, it says it is capable of scanning to a network folder.

Probably, but I would not recommend. This model is very demanding about paper and source settings, and multiple users would trip constantly over that problem. In addition., you could probably not scan to software effectively.

You have to connect the printer to the router or wirelessly and then you can scan if it's on the same network.

yes it can - this is a network device so you can install the client software of just access it via the network

The drive app will see the folders; how it interacts w/ your ethernet question is unknown. It should work, but ... connectivity is diceySorry I cannot be more specifici

You need to map the drive on your computer so that it can be accessible from anywhere in your local network.
