6. How do I Scan to File?
Scan-to-file means that you save the image in a file format on a PC
’
s hard disk rather than outputting
directly to a printer (copy). Scans cannot be saved in the scanner itself. In order to scan and save the
image in a file, your system must recognize a PC. Therefore, the configuration must include a PC, either
directly through USB or else through the network. The PC must have WIDEsystemNET installed. Your
system can scan to file if:
1. Your scanner is connected to the network through the LAN interface and S
can2Net Designated
Folder
functionality has been configured in WIDEsystemNET on each PC so that a special scan input
folder is defined on the PC and the PC will be recognized by the scanner.
2. Your scanner is connected to a local PC through USB and S
can2Net Designated Folder
functionality
has been configured in WIDEsystemNET on that PC so that a special scan input folder is defined on
the PC and the PC will be recognized by the scanner.
3. Your scanner is connected to the network through the LAN interface. The scanner has been enabled
for access from the PC
’
s on the LAN by setting the scanner
’
s
Share
option to
YES
(see section:
Setup to Share the Scanner
). The PC
’
s on the LAN are setup to recognize the shared scanner with
WIDEsystemNET software and compatible scan/copy software.
NOTE:
WIDEsystemNET software is on the WIDEsystem TOOLS CD that came with your scanner.
See the CD
’
s included documentation and your WIDEsystemNET software on-line help for instructions on
installing and configuring a PC for
Designated Folder
functionality.
