BEFORE USING THE MACHINE AS A NETWORK SCANNER FUNCTION

USES OF THE NETWORK SCANNER

The network scanner allows you to create an image file from the original data scanned by the machine, and send the file over a network to a PC, FTP server, or other destinations. If necessary, it scans the original using a TWAIN-compliant application on your PC.
The network scanner function provides the following scanning modes.

Scanner mode

The scanner function of the machine sends a scanned original as described below based on the specification of the destination.

  • Scan to E-mail
    • You can send a scanned file as an e-mail attachment. You can also save the file to the machine's memory and send only a URL link (without attaching the file) that allows the recipient to download the file.
  • Scan to FTP
    • The scanned file is sent to a specified folder of an FTP server. When the file is sent, it is also possible to send an e-mail to a previously stored e-mail address to inform the recipient of the location of the file.
  • Scan to Desktop
    • The scanned file is sent to a specified folder on your computer. For information on Scan to Desktop, consult your dealer.
  • Scan to Network Folder
    • The scanned file is sent to a network folder on a Windows PC on the same network as the machine. When the file is sent, it is also possible to send an e-mail to a previously stored e-mail address to inform the recipient of the location of the file.

For the operating procedure, see " SENDING AN IMAGE IN SCAN MODE".
