Configuring Settings Using a Web Browser

Creating a Backup File of All the Settings

It is possible to store the settings such as scanning conditions as a file in a shared folder on the network. This file can be used to restore the settings in case they are lost. In addition, if you use two or more units of this scanner, it is possible to configure necessary settings on only one unit and copy the settings to other units.

Setup items to be backed-up and restored

You can create a backup file that con- tains all the settings included under the [Configuration] main menu (except [Backup] in the [Basic Settings] sub- menu), and the settings can be re- stored using the backup file.

Even the settings that are configured by using the control panel of this ma- chine are backed up, as long as the settings are included under the [Con- figuration] main menu of the Web Sta- tus Monitor. Note, however, that there are setup items that can only be configured by using the control panel of this machine. These setup items are not included in the backup file.

Note

❒You cannot specify the items to be backed up or restored separately.

❒When you use a backup file to copy the settings to another unit, it is necessary to change the settings that must be unique for each of the units, such as an IP address setting.
