CGI Scripts
A CGI (Common Gateway Interface) script is a program on a Web server that is executed when the
server receives a request from a browser. A CGI script is required to allow files to be transferred to your
HTTP server from your printer.
When a document is scanned, the printer logs in to the Web server, sends a POST request along with
the scanned file, then logs out. The CGI script handles the remaining details of file transfer.
