This is a troubleshooting guide meant to be used if you’ve already tried to set up scanning from your Kyocera to your computer and failed. For basic instructions on how to get started, I would recommend to these sites:
- How to set up scan to folder in «How to guides for Kyocera Devices»
- Scan to Folder via SMB from Kyocera MFD/MFP to Windows 10 by Kyocera (pdf) and link 2
In short:
- Create a dedicated user in Windows that Kyocera will use to connect to it, you can run
netplwizfor quick access to user management - Hide the user from the login screen by editing your registry, and creating a DWORD (32-bit) with the same key (name) as the dedicated user for Kyocera and with value «0» in the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList(if the path does not exist, create it) - Share the target folder in Windows using Advanced Sharing (just clicking on share will NOT work)
- Give permissions to the folder for the dedicated user both in the sharing dialog (Folder Properties → Advanced Sharing → Permissions) as well as on the «Security» tab of the folder properties dialog
- Ensure SMB is enabled on your Kyocera (log in as admin, Network Settings page, under «Send Protocols»)
- Create an address book entry on your Kyocera web control panel:
Address Book → Machine Address Book → Add
Tips:
- You can set the Host Name to the name of the computer, or if that doesn’t work try to give a static IP address to the client and enter that
- The path should not start with a slash or the computer name!
- If you’re on a domain, the username should be in the format:
user@domain, otherwise:computer-name\user
You can also try Kyocera’s ancient «Scan to SMB» utility, which will try to do the above automatically. It….sometimes works. Google it, or try to find it on this page.
If you got this far and it’s not working, first take a moment and consider whether it would be easier to just set up
(a) configuring SMTP & delivering your scans via email, or
(b) an ftp server on the network & delivering scans there
Both take less than half an hour to set up and will work reliably. If you are intent on getting your Kyocera to work with SMB, then be prepared to spend hours troubleshooting the issue and boldly read on…
My favorite printer brands currently are Kyocera, Okidata, and Epson. All three companies continue to innovate, and they all offer affordable printers with very low cost of maintenance. I used to prefer HP until they got on the let’s-rip-off-our-customers-with-overpriced-ink-and-disable-aftermarket-toners gravy train.
Unfortunately there is one issue that I keep running into with Kyocera printers. It has become very difficult to set up scannning to a computer via SMB lately. This is not all Kyocera’s fault, these MFC-s still work fine with PC-s running Windows 7, and the problems often stem from «security improvements» and the general disaster that Windows has become. But Kyocera IS partly to blame because they are slow to adapt, and you can still buy Kyoceras with old firmware, and additionally they exacerbate the issue by not providing decent documentation and by «hiding» the software required to effectively troubleshoot the issue from the public. They rely too much on having a network of technicians worldwide — but many users don’t want to spend top $ for a technician to fix an old printer or even to install a new one. These things should just work and if they don’t, Kyocera should have an up-to-date guide published in a prominent location on the website with effective instructions to solve it as well as all software necessary (including firmware).
Anyways, I’m not an expert and I have no «magic» solution, this is just a post where I gather all useful suggestions I could find on this topic. Naturally, none of these come from either Kyocera or Microsoft itself.
The dirty word: «SMB»
The underlying issue often has to with SMB. Windows used to support SMB v1, but this has been disabled in newer versions of Windows 10. Certain Kyocera printers only support SMB v1, others require a firmware update to support SMB v2/v3, and newer devices support all three. You can read about SMB here. You can read about which printers support which protocol here. In case that link goes down, here’s the relevand part:

Firmware Update
You should first check if your printer supports SMB2/3. If a firmware update is required, then don’t even bother with any of the other solutions — I’ve tried them all and some printers simply don’t work with Windows 10 without a firmware update. Unfortunately Kyocera does not make firmware updates available to the public.
You can check your firmware version on the Device Information → Configuration page:
Kyocera has release several tools for managing their printers. Personally I haven’t figured out which is better or why there are so many tools. You can use Kyocera Net Admin (which is a «web-based» tool) or Kyocera Net Viewer, but there are others like «Kyocera Network Device Manager», «Kyocera Device Manager», etc. I used Kyocera Net Viewer because it’s one of the smaller downloads. Unfortunately, it is not easy to find — use google. I found some up-to-date versions here: http://kyoceradocumentsolutions.hu/letoltesek/tartalom/579132, you can also try the «Quick Links» on Kyoceradiscovery.com
You will also need the updated firmware file. This is even harder to find. As I understand it, Kyocera only makes this available to authorized technicians. A shame because the end result is that many printers, which work fine, are thrown away when a firmware update is really all that is needed. Bad for the environment! I personally found some firmware on some russian site.
Once you got this far, google youtube for instructions on how to update your firmware with Kyocera Net Viewer. Or just follow this screen shot:
Default credentials are often: Admin/Admin
Turn on SMBv1
This is not recommended. SMBv1 was deprecated for a reason. But, there comes a point where you’re ready to try anything.
You can enable SMBv1 by running optionalfeatures.exe, scroll down to SMB and tick SMB 1.0/CIFS Client (but not SMB 1.0/CIFS Automatic Removal)!
Some quotes:
Start the «Function Discovery Provider Host» and «Function Discovery Resource Publication» services, and then set them toAutomatic (Delayed Start).
When you open Explorer Network, enable network discovery when you are prompted.
(source)
So u just need to enable on win8 the SMB ver 1 with Powershell command : To enable SMBv1 on the SMB client, run the following commands:
sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/mrxsmb20/nsi
sc.exe config mrxsmb10 start= auto
Firewall
Turn off your firewall to see if that is the issue. Turn off both your Windows firewall as well as any proprietary firewall you might have installed (like with antivirus).
Rules to set to allow for windows firewall:
- File and Printer Sharing (NB-Name-In), UDP 137
- File and Printer Sharing (NB-Session-In), TCP 139
- File and Printer Sharing (SMB-In), TCP 445
- File and Printer sharing (NB- Datagram-In), UDP 138
Getting desperate…
- Try using the IP address of the machine instead of the hostname
- Add exceptions in Windows Firewall (incoming, printers and file sharing, SMB)
- Turn on public sharing for the folder
- Windows 10 blocks SMB on public networks, check the network profile of the network you’re connected to and set it to Private
- Check «Enable file sharing for devices that use 40- or 56-bit encryption» in «Advanced sharing settings», also enable «Password Protected Sharing»
Set these services to «Automatic»:
- Function Discovery Provider Host
- Function Discovery Resource Publication
- SSDP Discovery
- UPnP Device Host

Learn how to configure your printer to scan to SMB, meaning that scanned documents are saved directly to your PC.
Scanning your documents directly to a folder on a PC via the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol requires that your multifunction device (MFD) or multifunction printer (MFP) is configured to authenticate to your Windows PC.
This process will allow you to save scanned documents directly to a specified folder on your PC.
Additionally, your printer also needs to be connected to the network with a static IP Address. The IP address is needed to access the Command Centre for the MFD/Printer.
Finding your IP address
There are two ways to identify your IP address:
1) by printing a status page or
2) on the machine. Printers connected via Wireless/Wi-Fi will have to use the On The Machine method to obtain the IP address.
Printing a status page
Printing a status page is one of the fastest ways to find the IP address of the printer. The IP address can be found under the Network section.
On the machine method
For machines with a touch screen panel, the IP address can be found under System Menu > Report > Print Report > Status Page.
For machines without a touch screen panel, the IP Address can be found under Menu > Report > Report Print > Status Page.
Finding the host name of your PC
The host name is what your computer is called on the network. It’s also sometimes called Computer name. To find out your computer name, locate This PC and click on Properties.
Your computer name will be displayed as below:
Creating a folder on your PC
You can create a designated folder to store all your scans.
To create a new folder, right-click your mouse on your desktop or wherever in your document library you may wish to store your scans and choose New > Folder.
Give the folder a relevant name e.g. Scan.
Now right click on the folder and click on Properties.
Select Sharing then click on Advanced Sharing.
Enable Share this folder, then click on Permissions to ensure the device can locate the folder.
Select Everyone, confirm that Full Control is ticked and click Apply.
Click OK to exit.
Enabling scanning to a folder
Now it’s time to enable the scan to folder function on your printer. To do this, open Internet Browser (Google Chrome in this example) and type in your printer’s IP Address that you identified earlier into your address bar to access the Command Center.
Login with the default Admin account:
Username: Admin
Password: Admin
Select Address Book > Machine Address Book
Click on Add.
Name the contact (e.g. Scans) then proceed to enter the required information such as the host name or IP Address of the PC, along with your Windows login account information.
Perform a connection test and confirm the information entered is correct.
Click Submit to save this entry.

Доброго времени…
Сегоднря трахался с этой проблемой, на 7 без проблем, на 8 и даже 8.1 без пролем, с 10 засада…(ставил на чистую).
Уже поддержку и SMB 1.x включил, прописываю пользователя через вебморду, хрена там при нажатии на тест, крутит секнд 10 колесом и ошибка теста…
В гугле уже 100 страниц прочитал, нет прямого решения…
Порт 445 по умолчанию с другого компа сканируется…
Папке все разрешения выданы…
Где еще покопаться???
Заранее благодарю…

Вроде нашел решение с IXBT.com
Может кому поможет.
В организации 4 МФУ Kyocera.
M4132idn — 1 шт.
M2040dn — 1 шт.
M2035dn — 2 шт.
На M4132idn и M2040dn работает сканирование в сетевую папку, а на M2035dn нет.
Т.е. на одни и те же ПК (Windows 10, Ubuntu) с идентичными настройками M2035dn выдают при тесте в адресной книге ошибку подключения.
Проблема точно не в ПК, не в их адресах, не в общих папках.
Решилось обновлением прошивки аппаратов M2035dn c 2PK_2000.002.102 на 2PK_2000.005.109
