I have a weird oddity that I don't run into too often, but curious if there is a fix for it or if I need to live with my work around.

I have an older printer that has a scan to share function. Sadly it relies on NetBios (SMB 1.0) to be enabled. The printer is rock solid, except for this legacy SMB support. And it is on the latest firmware too.

If I patch or reboot my unraid server, the printer will not connect to the SMB shares after the reboot. My other Windows clients can without any issue.

If I stop the array, toggle the NetBios support from yes, to no, to yes, then click apply and start the array back up, the printer will connect to the share.

I honestly don't know if I just need to restart the array or if I need to make that toggle change so I can click Apply for it to work.

Any suggestions or known resolutions?

Just be thankful that you have a solution to make your old printer/scanner to still work. (A while back there was another user with the similar problem. As I recall, he also found a work-arround.) SMBv1 is all but gone as it has security issues especially for home users. Most people have long abandoned it so getting help to fix issues is now a problem.
