Overview 1
When you choose Scan to Network, you can scan documents directly to a shared folder on a CIFS server
located on your local network or the internet. The Scan to Network feature supports Kerberos and NTLMv2
authentication.
The details required to use Scan to Network can be entered by using Web Based Management to
pre-configure and store the details in a Scan to Network profile. The Scan to Network profile stores user
information and configuration settings for use on a network, or the internet.
Benefits to the customer 1
You can scan the document directly to a CIFS server.
You can configure up to 10 Scan to Network profiles. Once you have configured Scan to Network profiles
using Web Based Management, you can operate Scan to Network from the machine's control panel
without using a computer.
Scan to Network supports Kerberos Authentication and NTLMv2 Authentication for secured
communication.

Synchronize with SNTP server 2
You must configure the SNTP protocol (network time server), or you must set the date, time and time zone
correctly on the control panel for Kerberos Authentication. The time must match the time used by the
Kerberos Server.
SNTP is the protocol used to synchronize the time used by the machine for Authentication with the SNTP
time server (this time is not the time displayed on the LCD of the machine). You can synchronize the time
used by the machine on a regular basis with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) provided by the SNTP
time server.
Note
This function is not available in some countries.
aStart your web browser.
bType “http://machine’s IP address/” into your browser's address bar (where “machine’s IP address” is the
IP address of the machine or the print server name).
For example: http://192.168.1.2/
cNo password is required by default. If you have previously set a password, enter it and press .
dClick Network, and then click Protocol.
eSelect the SNTP check box to activate the setting.
fClick Advanced Setting.
Status
Displays whether the SNTP server settings are enabled or disabled.
SNTP Server Method
Choose AUTO or STATIC.
•AUTO
If you have a DHCP server on your network, the SNTP server will automatically obtain the address
from that server.
•STATIC
Enter the address you want to use.
Primary SNTP Server Address, Secondary SNTP Server Address
Enter the server address (up to 64 characters).
The Secondary SNTP server address is used as a backup to the Primary SNTP server address. If the
Primary server is unavailable, the machine will contact the Secondary SNTP server. If you have a
Primary SNTP server, but no Secondary SNTP server, simply leave this field blank.

Primary SNTP Server Port, Secondary SNTP Server Port
Enter the Port number (1 to 65535).
The Secondary SNTP server port is used as a backup to the Primary SNTP server port. If the Primary
port is unavailable, the machine will contact the Secondary SNTP port. If you have a Primary SNTP
port, but no Secondary SNTP port, simply leave this field blank.
Synchronization Interval
Enter the number of hours between server synchronization attempts (1 to 168 hours).
Note
• You must configure Date&Time to synchronize the time used by the machine with the time server. Click
Date&Time and then configure Date&Time on the General screen. You can also configure the Date &
Time from the machine’s control panel.
• Choose the Synchronize with SNTP server check box. You also need to verify your time zone settings
correctly. Choose the time difference between your location and UTC from the Time Zone pull-down list.
For example, the time zone for Eastern Time in the USA and Canada is UTC-05:00.
