I moved an HP-PSC-1210 AIO Printer/Scanner/Copier to a network  
connection attached via USB to a 1TB Time Capsule. I was bummed to see  
that Apple doesn't support network scanning, it's printing only over  
Apple wireless networks.

Now I see that this is a function of the router firmware, and that  
those routers with hacked linux DD-WRT firmware DO support shared  
network scanning under OS X. It works through the SANE for OS X  
software, which has somewhat spotty hardware support, and I assume  
doesn't support my AIO, but the idea that I could possibly scan over a  
network device is attractive.

Here's the article I found on this subject:
