Creating shortcuts

Creating a fax destination shortcut using the Embedded Web Server

Instead of entering the entire phone number of a fax recipient on the scanner control panel each time you want to send a fax, you can create a permanent fax destination and assign a shortcut number. A shortcut can be created to a single fax number or a group of fax numbers.

1Type the scanner IP address in the address field of your Web browser. If you do not know the IP address of the scanner, then you can:

View the IP address on the scanner control panel in the TCP/IP section under the Networks/Ports menu.

Print a network setup page or the menu settings pages and locate the IP address in the TCP/IP section.

2Click Settings > Manage Shortcuts > Fax Shortcut Setup.

Note: A password may be required. If you do not have an ID and password, then get one from your system support person.

3Type a unique name for the shortcut, and then enter the fax number.

To create a multiplenumber shortcut, enter the fax numbers for the group. Note: Separate each fax number in the group with a semicolon (;).

4Assign a shortcut number.

If you enter a number that is already in use, then you are prompted to select another number.

5Click Add.
