Introduction
The
ShareScan OP Services Manager
and the
connectors
are installed on a network computer
running Microsoft® Windows® 2000 or Windows XP. (No special server hardware is required.) The
Services Manager handles requests from the client and processes the image file. It returns user
interface forms and thumbnail images to the client and creates the master image file according to
the selected options (file type, searchable text, encryption, etc.). The connectors provide
connectivity to various back-end applications, such as e-mail and fax servers. For example, the
Exchange connector enables users to scan documents and e-mail them using Microsoft Exchange.
The
Administration Console
is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that enables
system administrators to configure and administer ShareScan OP Services Managers, connectors,
services, and scanning devices.
