1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the network scanner. Without any
computer, the product allows you to scan single-sided or
double-sided document(s) and deliver the electronic images
to various destinations including e-mail addresses, ftp
servers, network folders, or a USB drive.
What is best, with the built-in Wi-Fi module, the Avision
network scanner allows your mobile devices (smartphone,
tablet, etc.), wireless or wired computers in the LAN to start a
scan and receive the scanned image.
Before you install and operate the new scanner, please take a
few minutes to read through this manual. It provides proper
instructions for you to unpack, install, operate and maintain
the scanner.
1.1 Features
Scan-to-E-mail:
Connected to an ethernet network and a SMTP server, the
product allows you to transmit document(s) to your e-mail as an
attachment. With a specified e-mail profile, the document(s)
is/are first scanned and converted into an image file, and then
transmitted to remote recipients within minutes.
Scan-to-Network:
The product allows you to send the scanned documents to a
network via FTP (File Transfer Protocol) or CIFS (Common
Internet File System) protocol. The scan-to-folder feature off-
loads the mail server from handling large attachments.

1.7 Pre-installation Checklist
The product has to be setup properly on your network to
perform scan to e-mail and scan to network functions. Before
using the product, please setup the product properly on your
network for e-mail and filing function. The following network
parameters have to be set.
1. DHCP Enable:
2. IP Address: . . .
3. Subnet Mask: . . .
4. Gateway IP: . . .
5. DNS Server: . . .

IP/subnet/gateway/DNS server/WINS
server addresses automatically from
DHCP server.
2. *IP Address: The Internet Protocol (IP) address
assigned to your machine by your
network administrator or by DHCP
server.
3. Subnet Mask: The net mask address assigned by your
network administrator or by DHCP
server.

User’s Manual

Note:
1. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol), a host can automatically be given a unique IP
address each time it connects to a network--making IP
address management an easier task for network
administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your
network, you do not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask,
gateway, and DNS information. Instead, this information
will be automatically given for the product.
2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely
identifies a host connection to an IP network. System
administrator or network designer assigns the IP address.
The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying the
network and the one identifying your node. The IP
address is usually written as four numbers separated by
periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example,
10.1.30.186 could be an IP address.
3. SMTP: Stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. It is the
main communication protocol used to send and receive e-
mail on the internet.
4. DNS: Stands for Domain Name System. The DNS server
identifies hosts via names instead of IP addresses. If the
DNS server is available on your network, you can enter
the domain name instead of digits for the IP address.
5. WINS: Stands for Windows Internet Naming Service.
WINS resolves Windows network computer names (also
known as NetBIOS names) to Internet IP addresses,
allowing Windows computers on a network to easily find
and communicate with each other.
6. LDAP: Stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.
LDAP enables users to access directories and address
books directly from external networked devices to
simplify document distribution.
