Introduction

Steps required for setup

The following steps are required to use the network scanner option. The steps must be completed in the order shown.

1.Your dealer must install the FO-LN1 network interface kit and the FO-NS2 network scanner kit, and enter the network scanner product key. The machine must be connected to the network.

2.Your network administrator must decide whether the machine will be assigned a permanent IP address, or receive an address automatically from a DHCP server (assigning a permanent IP address is recommended; if DHCP is used, the lease time for the address should be set to unlimited). If a permanent IP address is to be assigned, the network administrator must determine what address will be used, and identify the subnet mask and gateway. Once this information has been determined, the IP address setting should be completed in the machine as explained on page 75.

4.Scan to E-mail setup must be completed as explained on page 84.

5.To use Scan to Desktop, you must install the Network Scanner Tool and Sharpdesk programs in your computer. These programs are installed from the CD-ROM that comes with the network scanner kit (see page 96 for installation instructions). User’s guides in PDF format for the programs are also included on the CD-ROM.

6.Destinations for Scan to E-mail and Scan to FTP can be programmed into Rapid Key and Speed Dial numbers using the Web page in the machine. These procedures are explained on page 81. Scan to E-mail destinations can also be programmed using the operation panel of the machine as explained on page 89. To use a Rapid Key or Speed Dial number to transmit a scanned document, see pages 89 and 91. To transmit a scanned document to an e- mail address without using a Rapid Key or Speed Dial number, see page 87.
