EDIT: Confirming that this is still a problem with 4.1.5 on the Duo. Scanner creates two files on the \\mynas\commons\scan folder of the Duo: SCAN.PDF, about 16.1K (shows as 17K rounded up) and a ".DS_Store" file containing binary gibberish but when viewed in Notepad I can also see "P D F" so it's some kind of temporary workfile or something. The scanner locks up and has to be rebooted. You can delete the .DS_Store file immediately, but scan.pdf is locked.
It would sure be nice to have a fix for this! Any thoughts or ideas???

Just got an HPOfficjet Pro 8500 that has ADF scan to network capabilities. Set it up to scan to a Readynas Duo share, eg \\mynas\scans , with assigned passwrod for that share. It creates a SCAN.PDF file of about 17K size, then freezes. The scanner goes into neverneverland and has to be rebooted. The file cannot be deleted until some timer releases the lock from the scanner. That is, it wont allow me to go in as a user or admin and delete the scan file.
In looking back through old officejet and scanning threads in the forum, this seemed to be addressed, but I can't be sure. Any tips, tricks or traps I should try? I'm on 4.1.4 on the Duo and in the process of downloading and installing 4.1.5 as I type this, so I'll give it another go later today. Scanning to the Duo is a feature I really hoped I could get working! THANK YOU ALL.
