User password should contain the password of the 'scanner user'.

Domain name should contain the name of the domain in which the user name exists. If the
'scanner user' does not belong to any domain, leave this field empty.

The server and folder names are used to connect to the shared folder by building a network folder path
as follows: \\server name\folder name

For a network folder, enter the name or IP address of the remote computer, the name of the shared
folder, and the user name and password of the 'scanner user' that you have already created on the
remote computer. Leave the user domain field empty unless the user is a member of a Windows
domain. If the user is only a local user of the remote computer, leave the field empty. You can use the
name (instead of the IP address) in the server name field only if the shared folder is on a Windows
computer in the same local network. This must be a simple name (up to 16 characters long) without a
domain suffix (without any dots in the name). Fully qualified DNS domain names are not supported. If
the product and the network folder are in different networks, or if the remote computer is not running
Windows, then you must use the IPv4 address instead of the name of the remote computer. On IPv6
networks the IPv6 address is also supported.

For an FTP folder, enter the server name, folder name, user name, and password. Leave the user
domain empty.

Click Add to save the configuration.

NOTE:

If the product has already been configured for scanning to the network and you now want to

use a different shared folder, click Modify.

The printer automatically checks that it can access the network folder. If not, see

Cannot access the

network folder or HP Designjet SmartStream (if installed as an accessory) on page 210

.

You can check at any later time that the shared folder remains accessible by clicking Verify in the
Embedded Web Server. A correctly configured shared folder can become inaccessible if the user’s
password is changed, or if the shared folder is moved or deleted.
