Receiving Computer Configuration
The following describes the configuration procedure for the receiving computer (server or workstation).
Using with FTP
1. Ensure that File Transfer Protocol (FTP) services is running on the server or workstation where
images scanned by the machine will be stored. Note down the IP address or host name.
2. Create a user account and password for the machine. When a document is scanned, the machine logs
in using the account, transfers the file to the server or workstation and logs out. Note down the user
account and password details.
3. Create a directory within the FTP root to be used as a scan filing location (repository). Note down the
directory path.
4. Test the FTP connection by logging in to the scan directory from a PC with the user account and
password. Create a new folder within the directory and then delete the folder. If you cannot perform
this function check the user account access rights and the FTP service setup.
Using with SMB
1. Create a shared folder to be used as a scan filing location (repository) for scanned documents. Note
the Share Name of the folder and the Computer Name or Server Name.
2. Create a user account and password for the machine with full access rights to the scan directory. Note
down the user account and password.
3. Test the settings by attempting to connect to the shared folder from another PC by logging in with the
user account and password. Create a new folder within the directory and then delete the folder. If you
cannot perform this function check the user account access rights.
