How do I use my product's control panel to automatically send an email of a scanned item?

If your product is connected through a network, you can set up a job in Document Capture Pro (Windows) or Document Capture (Mac) to automatically send a scanned item to Outlook or MAPI-enabled email applications.

Note: Make sure your Epson product and computer are connected to the same network.
