VNC is not very intrusive at all, and doubt that that would cause your
problems.

I recently was installing a Ricoh copier/fax/sccanner, and was trying to
make it work via SMB (rather than using FTP). I was initially having
problems but finally we did make it work so that we could scan and store
documents directly to a shared folder on the SBS server. So, I never had to
try using FTP.

I believe Susan Bradley has a copier/scanner/fax machine, and is using FTP
to make it work.
