ABOUT THE NETWORK SCANNER

 

FUNCTION

 

When the network expansion kit is installed in the machine, a document or photo can be scanned into an image file

 

and sent over a network or the Internet to a file server, e-mail destination, or your own computer.

You can select from the following transmission methods as the destination where you wish to send the scanned

image, depending on where you wish to send the scanned image data.

 

1. The scanned image can be sent to a memory

 

storage device on a network (a designated

 

directory on an FTP server). (This is called

 

"Scan to FTP" in this manual.)

 

When sending a scanned image to an FTP

 

server, an e-mail message can also be sent to a

 

preset e-mail address to inform the recipient of

 

the location of the scanned image data. (This is

 

called "Scan to FTP (Hyperlink)" in this

 

manual.)

 

2. A scanned image can be sent to a computer connected to the same network as the machine. (This is called "Scan to Desktop" in this manual.)

* Before Scan to Desktop can be performed, the software in the CD-ROM that accompanies the network expansion kit (AR-NB2 A) must be installed. For the procedure for installing the software, see the "SHARPDESK CD-ROM (for Windows)" (p.25).

3. The scanned image can be sent to an e-mail recipient. (This is called "Scan to E-mail"in this manual.)
