3 Installation of Software Required for Operation

Though the following packages need not necessarily be installed for operation, they are required for saving scanned images in file formats other than PNM format using the Scan Utility.

• netpbm
• ghostscript

We recommend installing these packages if they are not installed yet.

Installation status can be confirmed by the Package Manager provided with the respective distribution. It can also be confirmed by commands. Open the terminal application, and execute the following commands:

Debian OS

dpkg -l package name

Redhat OS

rpm -q package name

Memo

When installing on Ubuntu, search for "netpbm" from the Ubuntu Software Center and install the package. When installing on RHEL, insert the installation disk (DVD) in the disk drive, and search for "netpbm" from "Add/remove software". Two packages (netpbm-progs and netpbm) can be confirmed. Select and "Apply" both packages. Generally, Ghostscript is already installed when the Ubuntu and RHEL OS are installed. (This may differ according to the distribution and version.)

4 Scanning Methods

With this driver, scanning can be performed on two types of connections, on MFP devices connected over a network (LAN) and on MFP devices connected via the USB interface.

MFP devices connected by the USB interface can be used right away if they support this driver. For MFP devices connected over a network (LAN), however, the MFP must be registered.

For details on preparing/setting up the MFP device for scanning, refer to the manual for that MFP device.

! Note

The MC860 cannot be used in a network connection. Use it by a USB connection.

The Secure Scan Mode is not supported.

! Note

In Linux OS's such as RHEL where firewall functions are enabled, PushScan on the network sometimes cannot be performed. If this happens, check the firewall settings, and set so that external communications is enabled on the TCP 9968 port.

4.1 Registering Network Connected Devices

Turn the network connected device (MFP) to be connected ON to enable connection with the PC via the network (LAN).

Next, execute the Network Scanner Utility by the okiscanadm command using administrator privileges, and register/remove the network scanner by following the on-screen instructions.

Memo

On Ubuntu, use the sudo command to enable administrator privileges, and execute the okiscanadm command.

On Linux OS's such as Debian, log in as a root user or general user, use the su command on the terminal application to switch to a user having administrator privileges or execute the okiscanadm command using a terminal having administrator privileges in the "system terminal super user mode."

4.1.1 Registering Network Scanners

To register/remove an MFP device, administrator privileges are required. Perform this procedure as a root user.

On Ubuntu, use the sudo command to enable administrator privileges and start up the Network Scanner Utility. You will be prompted to enter the password. Enter the password, and click "Enter". The Network Scanner Utility starts up when authentication ends successfully.

[1] Selecting operation

Options are displayed when the Network Scanner Utility is started.

! Note

When performing a search, make sure that the target MFP device is turned ON, and that the PC to be used with the MFP device is connected and can communicate on the network.

Also note that searches are not possible if the PC to be used with the scanner device is connected via a router or a gateway. In addition to this, searches are sometimes not possible depending on the PC settings (routing settings, firewall settings, etc.). If this happens, enter "n", and click "Enter". Then, enter the required information following the on-screen messages.

For details, see "4.1.2 Registering Network Scanners Without Performing a Search".

[3] Broadcast address

Broadcast address used in search[255.255.255.255]:

! Note

• Broadcast packets sometimes cannot be sent using 255.255.255.255 depending on the OS settings, etc. If the IP address of the device (MFP) to register is already known, register that address without performing a search.
• If the IP address (MFP) is not known, search by a broadcast address that targets only inside the subnet of the network where the PC is connected. The broadcast address to specify in this instance can be obtained by the following method. When the device has multiple NICs, specify the broadcast address of the interface to which the target device (MFP) is connected.

\$ /sbin/ifconfig

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:cf:d0:aa

! Note

With OSs such as RHEL that have a firewall, reply packets from the device (MFP) in response to the broadcast packet sometimes cannot be received. If the IP address of the device (MFP) to register is already known, register that address without performing a search.

If it is absolutely necessary to search for a device, perform the following measures, for example:

• Disable firewall functions.
• Set the interface (NIC) to be used to a reliable interface.

For details, refer to the manual for the OS.
