Using shortcuts
What are shortcuts?
A shortcut is a way to quickly accomplish printing, copying, scanning, emailing, or faxing tasks with the
printer. You can configure and save a set of frequently used printer settings available for a given task and
then assign a shortcut number and shortcut name to it.
The shortcut number and shortcut name serve as the identification for a particular task and its printer
settings. When you want to perform a task with those settings, you do not need to go through the usual
process of adjusting the settings and options. Simply enter the shortcut number or select the shortcut
name and number on the printer control panel, and the task will launch automatically.
Configure the shortcut settings for a task in the Embedded Web Server:
Select To
Copy Copy a document or photo.
EcoCopy Copy a document or photo using twosided or draft setting.
ID Card Copy Copy both sides of an ID card onto a single page.
Scan to Fax Scan a document or photo and send it through fax.
Scan to Email Scan a document or photo and send it through email.
Note: Make sure the printer is connected to the network and the
Internet through an Ethernet or wireless connection.
Scan to Computer Scan a document or photo and send it to your computer.
Note: Make sure the printer is connected to the computer locally
(USB).
Scan to Network Scan a document or photo and save it to a network folder.
Note: Make sure the printer is connected to the Internet through an
Ethernet or wireless connection.
Scan to Memory Device Scan a document or photo and save it to a memory card or flash drive
(depending on your printer model).
Print a File Print a document from your computer.
Note: Make sure the printer is connected to the computer through
the same Ethernet or wireless network.
Example:
A lawyer who uses his printer to send e-mails to clients normally navigates through the printer control
panel to select the feature and its available options. Instead of doing that, he can configure the printer
settings (such as the message title and recipient) from the Embedded Web Server, and then assign a
shortcut number and shortcut name to the task. Every time he enters the shortcut number or selects the
shortcut name on the printer control panel, the printer automatically sends the documents according to
the selected settings.
