    Solution


    For the settings before using the Scan to File Server function (FTP) (related information), setting the IP address (related information) and setting up the computer as a file server are required.
    This section describes how to setup the computer as a file server after the IP address is set.

    Setting up a File Server

    NOTE
    • An FTP server for imageWARE Gateway is required for receiving data from the machine when used with imageWARE Gateway.
    • If you are sending to an imageWARE Document Manager folder, set <FTP Extension> to <On>.

    1. Set up the FTP server for imageWARE Gateway.

    For details about the settings, see the imageWARE Gateway Users Guide.

    2. On the FTP server for imageWARE Gateway, specify the folder to store data sent from the machine.

    For details about the settings, see the imageWARE Gateway Users Guide.

    NOTE
    • A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for a folder name.
    • A user name and a password must be 24 or less alphanumeric characters.

    3. On the FTP server for imageWARE Gateway, export destination data.

    For details about the settings, see the imageWARE Gateway Users Guide.

    NOTE
    • A DNS server is needed to use an FQDN format (for example, starfish.organization.company.com) for the FTP server address. (A DNS server is also required if the machine and the FTP server are in the same subnet.) If you have not set up a DNS server, use IP addresses.]
    • A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for an FTP server address of the FQDN format.

    4. Use the Remote UI of the machine to import the destination data exported in step 3 into the machine.

    • Click [Add. Func.] of the Remote UI -> click [Import/Export].
    • Click [Address Book].
    • Click [Import].
    • Click [Browse] -> select the file to import.
    • Click [OK].

    NOTE
    • A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for both <Host Name> and <Folder Name> on the display.
    • If you switch the language of the display, <Host Name> and <Folder Name> may not be displayed correctly.

    Registering File Server Addresses

    To send documents to a file server, specifying address is required. As well as entering a file server address directly, you can specify the file server address using the Address Book or One-touch registered beforehand. This section describes the instructions on how to register file server addresses in the Address Book or One-touch.

    NOTE
    • If <Language Switch> in Common Settings is set to <On>, the Host Name and File Path of the file server destination may not be displayed correctly, so you may not be able to refer to them.
    • This section describes how to register destinations from the Additional Functions screen. You can also register destinations from the Select Send Type screen, as follows:
    - In the Select Send Type screen, use [ ] , [ ] or (Scroll Wheel) to select <Address Book>, then press [OK].
    - Press the left Any key to select <Reg/Edit/Erase>.
    - Use [ ] , [ ] or (Scroll Wheel) to select <Register New Dest. to Add. Book>, then press [OK].
    - Follow the procedure described in this section from step 6.
    • Registering destinations in the Address Book is available only for the imageCLASS MF9170C.
