Introduction

This section explains how to enable and configure the Scan to Network Folder function. The printer has a feature

that enables it to scan a document and save it to a network folder. To use this scan feature, the printer must be

connected to a network; however, the feature is not available until it has been configured. There are two methods

for configuring Scan to Network Folder, the Save to Network Folder Setup Wizard for basic setup and Save to

Network Folder Setup for advanced setup.

The use of the term "server" in this context refers to the computer where the shared folder resides.
