How do i connect my ScanSnap IX500?

Hello everyone,

I need assistance connecting my Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 scanner to Scanservjs, which is running in a container on my Unraid server, over the network. Here are the details of my setup:

Scanner model: Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500
Scanservjs version: 3.0.3
Host system: Unraid Server 6.12.13
Scanservjs environment: Docker container on Unraid
Scanner IP address: 192.168.0.244

What I’ve tried so far:

I have set up Scanservjs in a Docker container on my Unraid server.
The scanner’s IP address is correctly set to 192.168.0.244, and it is reachable on the local network.
I’ve adjusted the configuration in Scanservjs’s config.json file as follows:

{
  "scan_source": "net",
  "net_host": "192.168.0.244",
  "net_port": 6566,
  "scan_timeout": 60
}

Problem:

The scanner does not appear in the Scanservjs web interface, even though it should be accessible via its network IP. I’m wondering if I need additional configurations for the Docker container or network settings.

Additional details:

The Docker container has network access, and I’ve already checked the network modes (bridge, host, etc.).
There are no specific error messages in the logs from Scanservjs or the Docker container.

Question:

Do I need to configure anything specific in terms of the Docker container on Unraid to connect the scanner properly over the network? Any specific tips for connecting a Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 to Scanservjs within a Docker container?

Thank you very much for any help or advice!

Best regards
