I can only grope in the dark and guess what you mean. Do you have two
computers with a Kermit program on each one? And a file created by the
scanner that you want to transfer from one computer to the other? If so,
it's a straightforward use of Kermit: Start Kermit on A, Make the connection
from A to B, log in to B, start Kermit on B, transfer the file. If you
don't know how to do that, consult the documentation for each Kermit program.
If you don't have a Kermit program on both computers, visit the Kermit Project
website to see how to get them:

Or... are you trying to "capture" the incoming scanner bytes from the serial
port? I doubt very much that the scanner supports Kermit protocol, but I have
no way of knowing for sure. Did the scanner come with documentation? What
does the documentation say about how to get scanned material into a computer
through its serial port?
