Memory card reader access

Network users can transfer memory card files to a networked computer using the Photo button on the PSC 2500 series front panel. Since memory cards appear as a “drive” on a networked computer, users also have the option to move card files to a folder on a networked computer using Windows Explorer. The network connection uses a Common Internet File System (CIFS) server to allow users to read and write files over the network to the all-in-one.

Due to slower file transfer rates—about 40kB per second over a network compared with about 450kB per second for USB—transferring memory card files via a network connection is best suited for a limited number of photos. Users can expect file transfers over a network to take 4-5 minutes for every 10MB of photos transferred. Other device functions, such as printing or scanning are available to network users during this time, however. For faster file transfer, or to transfer a larger number of images, customers can use a USB connection. Other computers can connect to the PSC 2500 series via a network connection at the same time.

E-mailing photos without a computer

Networked PSC 2500 series users can e-mail digital photos directly from the all-in-one using a memory card and the control panel—no computer is required. Scanned photos, children’s artwork, or a handwritten note can also be sent. E-mail addresses are configured through software and are stored in the PSC 2500 series memory. The photos are sent through the network to the router’s Internet connection, and then over the Internet to the HP Instant Share web site. The HP Instant Share service e-mails photos without large attachments or slow downloads for the recipient. HP Instant Share is also available from the HP photo and imaging software on networked computers.

Faxing

All network users can use the PSC 2500 series to send an electronic fax across the network to the all-in-one, which then sends the fax through the unit’s fax modem. To fax an electronic document from Microsoft Word, select File and then select Print. For the printer name, select hp psc 2500 series fax. Press OK and follow the on-screen prompts to enter the fax number and other information. Faxing can also be accomplished from the HP Director software by selecting “Send a Fax” and following the on-screen prompts. See the technology backgrounder on HP Image Zone photo and imaging software for more information.
