    There is a hardware solution from Keyspan by Tripp Lite. ABout $130 if I remember right. Can share 2 to 4 USB serial devices like printers, scanners and hard drives depending on model. Look at the USB serial servers.

    No audio or video devices.

    Hi,

    Normally I don't think there will be a chance to share a scanner over the network. However try the link below perhaps will help.

    Try this site : RemoteScan® - Use Scanners with Terminal Server and Citrix®

    Hope this will help!!
    Regards,

    As far as HP goes, this is one of the things you decide before the purchase. The scanners that support network based scanning have a higher price tag. The software for the network based All-In-Ones has options to select it as a network device.

    Sharing a printer on the network is easy. Sharing a scanner or fax is a different story.

    Remote scan will work

    This will work if it is just a scanner, if it is an All-In-One Scanner/Printer it will not work. You would just be able to share the printer part and not the scanner

    This will also work if just scanner - Blind Scanner Pro

    And I have also had luck with - Infothek Scan
