Scan to Desktop
The Scan to Desktop service allows you to start scanning by sending an instruction from a
computer on the network or from the device, and then save the scanned data to the
specified computer.
When you are away from the device to operate a computer with the documents left on the device, other
users may operate the device and there is a risk of document loss and information leakage. Use a computer
that is as close to the device as possible. When the scan process is complete, check that you have all the
pages of the documents.
[Scan to Desktop] may not appear on the Home screen depending on the settings. For more information,
refer to "Configuration of Scan to Desktop" (P.58).
Resolution, file format and so on cannot be specified from the control panel of the device. Specify these
settings in [Scan Profiles] of Windows. For more information on how to specify the settings, refer to Windows
Help.
