When I scan Remote Time, the displayed time is different to the current time in the Scanner, even though it is the same as the real time on the PC. Which settings on the PC should I check for scanning time in the Scanner?

Network Scanner uses the NetRemoteTOD Windows API call to find out the remote time. If for some reason it returns inconsistent data, you can try getting the remote time via WMI with

SELECT LocalDateTime FROM Win32_OperatingSystem

Simply go to Settings - Remote WMI and add the above query. It will then query the current time from the WMI subsystem.
