Xerox 490 ST, 480 ST manual Scanning Process, Scan a hard copy document at the Document Centre

The Scanning Process

Under the control of the instructions in the scan template, the Xerox Document Centre can scan hard copy documents and create electronic Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) or Portable Document format (PDF) files.

Using the filing information that is contained in the template, the TIFF/PDF file or files are transferred to a document repository on the file server. The document repository is simply a directory on the file server.

All pages of a multi-page document are scanned prior to the job being sent to the document repository.
