1. Using the Scanner Function

This chapter describes the scanner functions.

Guide to the Scanner Function

There are two scanning methods: scanning from the computer (TWAIN scanning) and scanning using the control panel.

Scanning from the computer

TWAIN scanning allows you to operate the machine from your computer and scan originals into your computer directly.

TWAIN scanning can be performed using a TWAIN-compliant application, such as Presto! PageManager.

TWAIN scanning is available with both USB and network connections.

Scanning using the control panel

Scanning using the control panel allows you to send scanned files via e-mail (Scan to E-mail), to an FTP server (Scan to FTP), or to the shared folder of a computer on a network (Scan to Folder), or to a USB flash disk (Scan to USB).

The Scan to E-mail, Scan to FTP, and Scan to Folder functions are available only through a network connection. No network connection is required for the Scan to USB function; you can send scanned files directly to a USB flash disk inserted into the front of the machine.
