CONFIGURING THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS 61

For example, if you scan a picture to an email application, the scanned image is saved as a temporary file, then attached to the email, and the email is sent. But because you already have the original picture, you may not want to also save a permanent file of that image as well. The same situation may occur when you scan directly to a printer or scan to a fax application. You already have the paper version (and in the case of a printer, you would have two paper copies—the original and the scanned printed version) so there’s no need for an electronic file too. However, by selecting this Create copies of scanned documents option, you can choose to save permanent copies of those types of images on your hard drive.

The copies will be saved in the folder specified in the Folder Copy Options section (see the figure on page 59 and the description below).

You can selectively choose the types of Destination Applications that will have their scanned images saved permanently. For example, if your computer is connected to multiple printers and fax machines, each one is considered a separate Destination Application. By selecting the Fax and Print box and clicking the Create copies of scanned documents option, every scanned document you fax or print from the scanner is also saved as a permanent file on your hard drive.

This option is not available if either the Document Management or Storage and CD-R/Woptions are selected because, by default, file copies for those types of Destination Applications are already automatically saved in the folder for copies.

Likewise, the option is also not available for the default setting of Buttons 1 (Scan), 2 (PDF), and 7 (Archive) because they are set as Transfer to Storage with the Destination Application type set as Storage and CD-R/W.

Folder Copy Options—This section of the dialog box sets the location for copies of your scanned documents and how you want to group them.

All copies of your scanned documents, regardless of type of Destination Application, are saved in this folder.
