Can a scanner be shared like a printer?
I have an Epson V700 Photo but on its properties there is no option for sharing?

Do you have Vista Business or better edition?

I have Vista Home Premium though I also have the full version of Business but terrified to install it in case I muck up Vista Home as it is running so well!

I am sharing a scanner with my wifes Laptop. I use Vista and have a multifunction Brother. She uses XP and sees my scanner on our wireless network lan. Only thing is to install the software on all computers.
