If the “Sort by FAX information” check box on the dialog box displayed by selecting [Sort Settings] on the [Settings] menu of IP Scanner is selected, a folder is created with a name that is the same as the transmission source information (telephone number, etc.) for the received fax document and the image file is saved in that folder.
Note
If the recipient information contains characters that cannot be used in folder names (\ / : * ? " < > or ), a folder is not created by using the recipient information. In this case, the image file is saved in a folder with the name of the button or the date. (If there are characters that cannot be used in the folder name created from the name of the button, they are replaced with “_” (underline).) However, if the “Folder by key name” check box or the “Create new folder by Date” check box is not selected, the data is saved in the folder “My Images”.
If the forwarding destination computer is not turned on or if Image Receiver has not started up, the fax document that was forwarded cannot be received and the forwarded image file is lost.
