Scan to E-mail

The scanned file is sent by e-mail.

Scan to FTP

The scanned file is sent to a specified directory of an FTP server.

When the file is sent, it is also possible to send an e-mail to a previously stored e-mail address to inform the recipient of the location of the file. (This is called "Scan to FTP (Hyperlink)".)

Scan to Desktop

The scanned file is sent to a specified folder on your computer.

To use Scan to Desktop, software must be installed from the "Sharpdesk/Network Scanner Utilities" CD-ROM that accompanies the network scanner expansion kit. For the system requirements of the software, see the manual (PDF format) or the Readme file on the CD-ROM. For the installation procedure, see the "Sharpdesk Installation Guide" that accompanies the network scanner expansion kit.

Scan to Network Folder

The scanned file is sent to a shared folder on a Windows computer on the same network as the machine.

Transmission is possible to computers running the following operating systems: Windows 98/Me/NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista
