Scanning to a Folder on the Printer
The Scan to Mailbox feature allows users to scan files to mailboxes, which are folders created on the
printer hard drive. These files can then be retrieved through CentreWare Internet Services. This feature
provides network scanning capability without the need to configure a separate server and is supported in
Workflow Scanning. For details, see
Workflow Scanning
on page 159.
For instructions on using this feature, see the
User Guide
