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

  • You can scan an original and email the scanned file using your product's control panel. You need to have a preconfigured email server before you can scan to email. You can either enter the email address directly on the product's control panel or select an address from the Contacts list. Make sure the date and time are set correctly so the time stamps on your emails are accurate.

    Note: You can also use the Scan to Document Capture Pro function to scan and email the scanned file.

    1. Place your original on the product for scanning.

      Note: To scan a double-sided or multi-page document, place all of the pages in the ADF.

    2. Press the  home button, if necessary.
    3. Select Scan. You see a screen like this:
