BEFORE USING THE NETWORK SCANNER FUNCTION
ABOUT THE NETWORK SCANNER
FUNCTION
When the network scanner function is added to the machine, a document or photo can be scanned into an image file
and sent over a network or the Internet to a file server, e-mail destination, or your own computer. The scanned
image can be sent to the following types of destinations:
1. The scanned image can be sent to a memory
storage device on a network (a designated
directory on an FTP server). (This is called
"Scan to FTP" in this manual.)
When sending scanned image to an FTP
server, an e-mail message can also be sent to a
preset e-mail address to inform the recipient of
the location of the scanned image data. (This is
called "Scan to FTP (Hyperlink)" in this
manual.)
2. A scanned image can be sent to a computer
connected to the same network as the
machine. (This is called "Scan to Desktop" in
this manual.)
* Before Scan to Desktop can be performed, the
"Network Scanner Tool" software in the
CD-ROM that accompanied the Network
Scanner Expansion Kit (MX-NSX1) must be
installed. For information on Scan to Desktop
system requirements, installing the Network
Scanner Tool, and storing the destination, see
the Users Guide for the Network Scanner Tool
on the CD-ROM that accompanies the network
scanner expansion kit.
3. The scanned image can be sent to an e-mail
recipient. (This is called "Scan to E-mail" in
this manual.)
* A limit is set in the Web page for the size of
image files that can be sent using Scan to
E-mail (p.6).

recipient more than once, we recommend that
you also select "Session Page Counter" or
"Unique Identifier" to prevent sending multiple
files with the same name, which would result in
each successive file overwriting the previous file.
• If a file name is entered at the time of
transmission, the file name entered here
will be disregarded.
If a subject is entered at the time of transmission,
the subject entered here will be disregarded.
