5) Scan to FTP
This function enables scanned documents to
be uploaded as TIFF or PDF data to an FTP
server either on an office LAN or over the
Internet. Storage on the FTP server is in a
specified directory. PCs on the same network
can be used to access the server and download
the stored documents. This is a highly
effective way to share large volumes of data
that would otherwise be difficult to send via
e-mail.
6) Scan to E-mail
Scan data can be sent to a PC as a TIFF or PDF
format e-mail attachment. By pre-registering
e-
mail addresses, a hardcopy document can be
sent via e-mail using a simple one-touch
operation. This function allows the transmission
of documents to destinations within the office,
outside the company and to Internet-ready
mobile PCs, as well as multiple addresses
simultaneously. Since data is sent directly to
personal e-mail addresses, timely and reliable
delivery of information can be ensured.
Document data received as an e-mail attachment
can be stored and managed conveniently on
individual PCs.
7) Scan to SMB
This function forwards scanned data directly to
a specified folder on any PC connected to the
office LAN. Furthermore, by pre-registering a
destination in the one-touch memory, hardcopy
can be converted to TIFF or PDF and forwarded
directly to any PC at the push of a button. Since
the SMB protocol is used, there is no need to
access a server, thus minimising security risks
for data.

8) Scan to Internet Fax
Hardcopy is converted to TIFF or PDF data
and attached to an e-mail in MIME format.
Then, taking advantage of a connection to the
office LAN, data is sent via TCP/IP directly
to any Internet Fax on the intranet or Internet.
Because they make use of TCP/IP, Internet
Faxes do not incur long-distance transmission
costs and reception is verifiable.
