Setting up Network Scanning

E-mail settings

Before the Scan to E-mail function can be used, you must configure the e-mail settings.

The e-mail settings specify your outgoing (SMTP) mail server, as well as your sender name, sender address, and other information that appears in the e- mail to which scanned image files are attached.

♦The e-mail settings are configured in the machine’s Web page. The machine’s Web page can be accessed from any computer on the same network as the machine.

Accessing the machine’s Web page

To access the Web page, you will need to know the machine’s host name or IP address (usually it is most convenient to use the host name).

To check the machine’s host name or IP address, follow the procedure in Checking your IP address and the connection (page 30), or print the Network Settings List (page 141).

Type in the host name or IP address of the machine in the address bar of your computer’s Web browser. The machine’s Web page will appear.

♦For the Web browser, it is recommended that you use Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher.

Note: If the Web page is used while the machine is in operation, machine operation may become unstable.

If password protection has been enabled for the Web page...

If your administrator has enabled password protection for the Web page, you will need to enter the user name and password to open the Web page. Regular users enter “user” in User Name and the user password in Password. (If you do not know the user password, ask your administrator.) The administrator enters “admin” in User Name and the administrator password in Password.
