Setting Up a Computer as a File Server
To send data from the machine to a computer on your network, you need to specify
the settings of the computer for receiving data. You can send data over a NetBIOS
network to a Windows shared folder. This section explains how to configure a
shared folder.
IMPORTANT
•
To send data from the imageRUNNER 105, imageRUNNER 8500, or imageRUNNER
7200, the Universal Send Expansion Board-A1 (optional) must be installed.
•
This section describes only the procedures for setting up a computer receiving data sent
from the machine. To send data from the machine to a server on the network, you must
enter an address setting from either the control panel or a web browser (Remote UI). For
instructions on specifying recipient address settings from the control panel, see “Chapter
1 Various Sending Methods” in the Sending Function Guide (imageRUNNER 105,
imageRUNNER 8500, imageRUNNER 7200, imageRUNNER 5000i), or “Chapter 1
Various Sending Methods” in the Sending Function/Facsimile Guide (imageRUNNER
3300i). For instructions on using a web browser (Remote UI), see “Chapter 2 Functions
of the Remote UI” in the Remote UI Guide.
•
The following procedures describe a sample shared folder configuration. Depending on
your environment, the actual configuration procedure may differ.
NOTE
•
You can send data over a TCP/IP network from the machine to an FTP server. For
instructions on setting up an FTP server, see “Setting Up a Computer as a File Server” in
“Chapter 3 Using a TCP/IP Network (Windows/ UNIX/Macintosh).” (See p. 3-43.)
Connecting to a TCP/IP Network
A computer that receives data sent from the machine must have TCP/IP client
software installed and must be enabled for TCP/IP network use. For details, see the
manuals provided with the operating system.
