TYPES OF DOCUMENT FILING

There are three ways to save a file using document filing: "Quick File", "File", and "Scan to HDD".

 

As a copy, scan send, or other job is performed, this function saves the document data to the hard

 

drive. Use this function when you want to quickly and easily store document data without specifying a

Quick File

file name or other information.

 

The stored file can also be used by other people. Do not use this method to save files that you do not

 

want others to use, such as files containing sensitive or confidential information.

 

 

 

As a copy, scan send, or other job is performed, this function saves the document data to the hard

File

drive. Unlike Quick File, various types of information can be appended to the file when the file is saved

to enable efficient file management.

 

 

A password can also be established to prevent the file from being retrieved up by others.

 

 

Scan to HDD

This function scans a document and stores it as a file. Like File, various types of information can be

appended to the file when it is stored.
