Errors in setting up Scanning Parameters for MB5120 AIO.

When setting up the printer for scanning the "Quick Utility Toolbox > Add ... > (I entered the following):


Displayed Name: ScnndDocs
Shared Folder Name in Destination: \\HP-AIO\Windows|This PC\Documents\Scanned_Docs
DomainName/Username: \\HP-AIO\ibud0

If I click on Browse..., I get: " Network", followed by the names of the two computers on the network (one of which is HP-AIO. Clicking on the latter has no results. "Make New Folder" and "OK" are both grayed-out. Only "Cancel" is available.


Several other 'Trial & Error' attempts met with similar inglorious results. I also unsuccessfully tried inserting the LAN network name.


It would be greatly appreciated if someone could lead me out of this labyrinth of confusion.

I should add, I  have no problems printing from either computer.

These are the instructions supplied  by  the prorgam:

 

    Enter a folder such as a shared network folder in the form of "\\server name\folder name". Separate the server name and          folder names with backslashes.

 

    If a domain name is required, enter it in the form of "domain name\user name". Separate the domain name and user name        with a backslash.

 

They were of little/no help  to me.

Greetings,

My major problem probably comes from not knowing what are, and where to find, my server and domain as mentioned in the intructions.
