• Open MFP Configurator, switch to Scanners configuration,

 

then press Drivers. Make sure that driver with a name

 

corresponding to your machine's name is listed in the

Check the MFP port is not busy. Functional components of

 

MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (MFP

 

port) and multiple components may be trying to use the MFP

 

port at the same time. Only one component at a time is allowed

 

to control the MFP. Any other component attempting to use the

 

MFP will receive the “device busy” message. This can usually

 

happen while starting scan procedure, and appropriate

 

message box displays.

 

• To identify the source of the problem, you should open MFP

 

ports configuration and select the port assigned to your

 

scanner. The symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0

 

designation displayed in the scanners’ options; /dev/mfp1

 

relates to LP:1, and so on. USB ports start at /dev/mfp4, so

 

scanner on USB:0 relates to /dev/mfp4 respectively and so

the port is occupied by another component. If this is the

 

case, you should wait for current job to finish or press the
