SCAN TO FOLDER FTP/SMB/NCP
Closely related to Scan-to-email is Scan-to-Folder FTP/SMB/NCP. The only difference is that with Scan-
to-Folder, your customer stores the scanned document in a designated folder on a server and then
provides recipients with its URL so it can be downloaded at their convenience.
Scan-to-Folder is particularly well suited for posting documents for customers and business partners,
as well as for files that might get “bounced” by receiving mail servers that don’t permit attachments or
because the file size is too large for the receiving e-mail system.
Scan-to-Folder works with both FTP and SMB servers. FTP—File Transfer Protocol—is an open protocol
that supports any computer operating system (Windows, Macintosh, UNIX). SMB—Server Message
Block—is for Windows-only networks.
Once documents are stored in a folder, users can then browse them using an Internet browser.
