NOTE: The implementation of Direct Digital Filing requires a basic understanding of networking concepts. Setup of these features should be completed by users with some networking experience.

To set up a network folder

Create a folder on your network. This folder is used to store files that are scanned by using the Direct Digital Filing feature.

NOTE: Make sure that all of the people using the network folder have permission to access the folder, including the ability to write and change the contents of the folder. To change the permissions for folders, see the documentation available for your operating system.

To set up a speed-dial entry

1.Open a Web browser and type in the IP Address that is assigned to the device. For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123, type the following address into the Web browser: http://123.123.123.123

NOTE: The printer must be connected to the network. The IP address of the device can be obtained from the control panel.

2.Click the Settings tab.

3.Under Address Book, click Direct Digital Filing Speed-dial.

4.Enter the information for the speed-dial entry, and then modify any scan settings that you want to change.

5.Click Add. The entry is added to the Direct Digital Filing Speed-dial Address Book.
