Makes sense. Windows Home editions rely on creating Home Groups or cloud-based sharing (like OneDrive/Google Drive/Dropbox/etc), so SMB shares are a problem. Of course, in real-world scope, a Windows Home user is not really likely to use a network multi-function copier or something with these kinds of services, except perhaps as a print client. Certainly not as a repository for network scanning jobs from a MFD copier.
I've seen the same situation in schools where students have Windows Home as part of their kit, but were unable to complete the labs that relied on SMB file shares, or other things like domain operations, BitLocker, and Azure integration. Of course there are those one-offs or SOHO users that went out and got Windows Home box to save a few bucks. Many of them had to virtualize a WinPro box to see those functions.
