Scanner: Using Scan to FTP with the Macintosh FTP Server
You can send the data scanned from the machine's ADF or the original glass (scan data) to the FTP server.
From a computer connected to the network or Internet, you can access the FTP server and download a large volume of scan data even if you are in a remote location from the machine.
A large volume of scan data (more than 10 MB) can be sent more securely than by E-mail.
• Examples Introduced in This Section
Using the Scan to FTP function, send the scanned data (PDF) from the machine to the Macintosh computer registered as a FTP server.
