Automatically Saving Files to a Folder

When the Automatically save scans function is activated in the Preferences, the ﬁles selected in the File Manager will be saved to the folder location you have speciﬁed in the Preferences. This saving pro- cess will begin immediately when you press Retrieve in the File Manager without a Save dialog box appearing.

If you need to save to a diﬀerent location, uncheck the Auto Save box on the lower right of the File Manager window. When unchecked, the retrieval process will begin with a Save ﬁle dialog so you can specify the location and name of the ﬁle prior to its transfer.

Automatically Opening the Image

When the “Automatically open retrieved ﬁles” option is selected then the application selected in the Preferences will be used to open the image ﬁles after they have been transferred to the host computer. This option works in conjunction with the “Automatically open retrieved ﬁles” option in the Preferences.

In Windows, an application must be selected in the Preferences for opening the image. If an application is not selected, the image ﬁle will not be opened.
