2.8 Sending data to a server (Scan to FTP)
Scan to FTP
The Scan to FTP operation can be used in a network environment that con-
tains an FTP server. The scan data can be sent to a folder specified on an
FTP server on the network.
This is suitable for transmitting large-sized data, such as high-resolution da-
ta.
Destinations can be selected using any of the following methods. In addition,
the methods can be combined, for example, by selecting a recipient from a
group destination, then adding other destinations through direct input.
Transmission may not be possible if the document name is too long accord-
ing to the destination server conditions. Since the scanning settings are
used, consult your network administrator when specifying the document
name.
Destinations can be selected for Scan to FTP operations using any of the fol-
lowing methods. For details, refer to the corresponding section.
