Hi glorpy,
Sounds like you are missing the scan utility. Visit our website; in the Software section download MP Navigator EX. With the proper drivers installed (you can install your updated Windows 8 drivers on this page as well), the software will allow you to scan over the network.
If this is a time sensitive-matter, additional support options are available at Contact Us.
