Network Scanning Setup

Network scanning uses FTP, SMB, Netware, HTTP, or HTTPS protocols to transfer a scanned document on to a server or a client. Templates (scanned file properties) and repositories (destination folders) need to be set up to enable network scanning.

Prerequisites for Network Scanning Setup

Confirm that:

1.An existing operational network utilizing TCP/IP is available.

2.A repository (folder) exists on the FTP or SMB server to hold the scanned documents. A user account for the machine must be created on the server that allows access to the repository folder.

Procedure for Setup of Network Scanning Ports

To use Network Scanning, enable the applicable Ports (SMB or FTP client) on the machine, and make sure that an IP address has been set on the machine.
