we have more than four scanners but the php-scanner-server only detecting the base machine scanner that was my 1st scanner(installed in webinterface hosted machine), i need to detect the scanners which are installed in the client machines through the web interface..i want to work all the scanners at a tme.

Communicating with scanners hosted via other computers requires sharing them via saned If they are standalone scanners you should consult there manual, alternatively you can hook them up to a raspberry pi and use it as a saned server that the primary server uses to connect to the scanner

didn't i put this in the wiki? yes,yes i did: https://github.com/GM-Script-Writer-62850/PHP-Scanner-Server/wiki/Adding-Remote-Scanners

I want to detect the client scanner through a web interface hosted in server E.g. testscan.org is domain name of scanner. While calling the domain from client there is no scanner detecting. But the scanner was successfully installed in client machine..Any help

you are thinking backwards, the scanner needs to be connected to the server, the client requires no direct connection to the scanner now sharing the scanner from the client to the server is doable thus making a connection to the scanner from the client, this is what the wiki explains, for this both system will need to be running a linux operating system, you can work around this limitation using a raspberry pi (A 0 + usb wifi or 0W board would be cheapest)

If your client system is also the server, web gui is at http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost i will need to know the model of the scanner and the output of a few comands

Did you mean a Kodak i2400 How is it connected to the server? Is this correct for your setup? untitled
