Sharp R2.7 manual System Options Tab, File Naming

System Options Tab

The Network Scanner Tool uses a modified FTP server that is controlled using the System Options tab. This tab lets you set the FTP port number for communications with your computer as well as allow FTP reads.

Security is provided by using a unique port (rather than the standard FTP port number) and by allowing only receipt of files. The modified FTP server always uses an anonymous login so there is no risk of a user name or password being intercepted. Since FTP Get commands can be disabled, no other computer can read files that are sent to the modified FTP server.

If you check the “Allow FTP reads” box, this security may be compromised. Others will be able to read files in the modified FTP server’s root directory.

File Naming

The Sharp multifunction copier has a built-in method for naming images scanned to desktops. If you wish to use the same file naming convention that Sharpdesk uses when using a locally attached TWAIN scanner, check the ‘Override Copier file name settings’ box and hit the Details button. This will bring up the Acquire Properties dialog box and allow you to set the naming conventions according to your Sharpdesk preferences. As long as the Override Copier box is checked, any changes made to file naming conventions, either through Network Scanner Tool or Sharpdesk, will apply to both scans initiated locally on the user’s PC or scans sent to the user’s PC through Network Scanner Tool.
