UseTo

Scan a document and send it to a shared network folder. You can define up to 30 unique folder destinations.

Notes:

  • The printer must have permission to write to the destinations. From the computer where the destination is specified, use sharing, security, and firewall settings to allow the printer at least a write access. For help, see the documentation that came with your operating system.
  • The Scan to Network icon appears only when one or more destinations are defined.
  1. Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

    Note:  View the printer IP address on the printer home screen. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

  2. Do either of the following:

    • Click Set up Scan to Network > Click here.
    • Click Settings > Apps > Apps Management > Scan to Network.
  3. Specify the destinations, and then customize the settings.

    Notes:

    • See the mouse-over help beside some of the fields for a description of the setting.
    • To make sure the location settings of the destination are correct, type the correct IP address of the host computer where the specified destination is located. For more information on obtaining the IP address of the host computer, see Finding the IP address of the computer.
    • Make sure the printer has access rights to the folder where the specified destination is located.
  4. Click Apply.

To use the application, touch Scan to Network on the printer home screen, and then follow the instructions on the printer display.
