"Could not send the data
because the PC timed out
before it was sent."
A time out occurred when
using WSD Scanner. Time
outs occur when too much
time passes between
scanning an original and
sending its data. The
followings are likely causes
of time outs:
• Too many originals per
set.
• Misfed originals.
• Transmission of other
jobs.
• Reduce the number of originals,
and then scan again.
• Remove any misfed original, and
then scan again.
• Use Scanner Journal to check
there are no jobs awaiting
transmission, and then scan
again.
