Creating a New Inbox

You can create a new inbox in addition to those automatically
recognized by the HP Network ScanJet 5 Utility. This may be necessary
if you have developed an in-house application that you want to use as an
inbox. Such applications could be common-directory applications, such
as the Win95 Explorer shell extension, or a launch-application, which
directs the HP Network ScanJet 5 Utility to start the specified
application and place the scanned document in its directory. You can
create three types of inboxes: directory, launch-application, and printer.

On the Inbox tab of the HP Network ScanJet 5 Utility dialog box, click
Add New Inbox.

directory path to the location to save scanned documents.
