I/O error while communicating with scanner

Question

When scanning document from windows 10 on a Samsung Xpress M2870FD printer, it fails with

"I/O error while communicating with the device. Please wait and try scanning again. If it does not help, please turn the device off, then switch it on and wait while it warms up."

I uninstalled the driver and installed it again, but the same error appears. The same error also appears on other PCs.

Solution

You may try to download and install M2870FD software from
Software and driver results for: Samsung Xpress SL-M2870FD Laser Multifunction Printer.

The section to look at is "Driver-Product Installation Software", both the "Print Driver" and "Scan Driver".

If you are using the Easy Print Manager, open it and click "Scan to Pc Setting", and check it is set to Enable.

If this does not help, it would help to know if you are scanning from the printer or from the desktop, and if you are having this problem in both modes.
