AXIS 700 User’s Manual Section 4: Using the AXIS 700 55
Web Browser Scanning to a Web browser is a convenient method for users that
infrequently send information or users that do not have an e-mail
address. It is also useful if you want to try a number of scanning
profiles.
You place the document in the scanning device and access the AXIS
700 from a standard Web browser. You can then trigger it directly
from the Web browser and save the image within the Web browser
dialog. Depending on the image format used, the Web browser will
display the image in an associated viewer or ask you to save the file.
Data is sent directly between the AXIS 700 and the user, i.e. peer-to-
peer. This results in minimum network load, and normally no data
will be sent over the backbone of the network.
Scan to URL Scanning to URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is a combination of
scan-to-e-mail and scan-to-file, where images/documents are stored on
a file server. The recipient will receive an e-mail containing the URL
(Web link) to the file, instead of an e-mail attachment. This off-loads
the mail server from handling large attachments.
