FTP/SFTP Filing
File Transport Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to pass and manipulate files over a
TCP/IP network. Several services running on your printer, including Network Scanning, Saved Jobs
Backup, and Software upgrade can use FTP as a filing service.
Secure FTP (SFTP) is a standard network protocol that is used with SSH to ensure that data is encrypted
and transferred securely.
