What are shortcuts?

A shortcut is a way to quickly accomplish printing, copying, scanning, emailing, or faxing tasks with the printer. You can configure and save a set of frequently used printer settings available for a given task and then assign a shortcut number and shortcut name to it.

The shortcut number and shortcut name serve as the identification for a particular task and its printer settings. When you want to perform a task with those settings, you do not need to go through the usual process of adjusting the settings and options. Simply enter the shortcut number or select the shortcut name and number on the printer control panel, and the task will launch automatically.

Configure the shortcut settings for a task in the Embedded Web Server:

Example:

A lawyer who uses his printer to send e-mails to clients normally navigates through the printer control panel to select the feature and its available options. Instead of doing that, he can configure the printer settings (such as the message title and recipient) from the Embedded Web Server, and then assign a shortcut number and shortcut name to the task. Every time he enters the shortcut number or selects the shortcut name on the printer control panel, the printer automatically sends the documents according to the selected settings.
