4.1 Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why can’t I connect my USB device to my computer through MFP and Storage Server?
z
Make sure the USB device functions normally when you plug it into your computer via USB
cable.
z
If the USB device, such as USB printer or multi-functional printer, requires a driver, please
make sure you have installed it on the computer you wish to use. Rebooting your computer
after installing USB device driver might also help.
z
Although the MFP and Storage Server could work with a very wide spectrum of USB devices,
it still has limited support on some USB devices. Please refer to the supported device list for
details.
2. Why can’t I see any servers on my MFP and Storage Server listing window after
installing it?
z
Please make sure that all of your MFP and Storage Servers are correctly connected to your
network. Also, certain anti-virus programs come with firewall functions that might prevent the
MFP and Storage Server setup utility from accessing the network. Please make sure the MFP
and Storage Server setup utility is not being blocked by your anti-virus program.
3. The connected USB devices are disconnected after my computer wakes up from the
computer stand-by?
