Authentication Settings: The authentication settings determine whether to use the credentials of the signed

in user at the product or to use fixed credentials.

Use credentials of User: Select this option to use the login credentials for the user, which is typically

the Windows login. The product user must also have permission on the shared folder for the credentials

to work.

Always use these credentials (fixed credentials): Select this option to enter valid credentials for access

to the shared folder. This option means that anyone with access to the product can send to the folder.

Windows Domain: Enter the Windows domain name in this field.

The following information applies for environments that are not on a domain:

If a shared folder is set to be accessed by everyone, values for a workgroup name (default is

“Workgroup”), username, and password fields are required to save the quick set. However, it typically

does not matter what the values are.

TIP:

These fields are available under Authentication Settings using fixed credentials. If the folder is

in a within a particular user’s folders and not Public, the credentials of that user must be used.

An IP address might be necessary instead of a computer name. Many home routers do not handle

computer names well, and there is no Domain Name Server (DNS). In this case, it is best to set up a

static IP address on the shared PC to alleviate the problem of DHCP assigning a new IP address. On a

typical home router, this is done by setting a static IP address that is on the same subnet, but outside

the DHCP address range.
