Scanner: Using Scan to SMB with Windows Shared Folder

It is possible to send a large volume of scan data from the machine to the shared folder created on the Windows computer (supporting
SMB protocol) on the network.

From a computer connected to the network, you can access the shared folder, and import and save a large volume of scan data.

A large volume of scan data (more than 10 MB) is sent more securely than by E-mail. You can share data easily without configuring a full-
scale FTP server.

• Examples Introduced in This Section

Create a shared folder "Scan-SMB" on the desktop of the Windows computer and send the scan data (PDF) with the Scan to SMB
function from the machine.

•Intended Environment

Network The machine and the SMB server (Windows computer) are connected to the network.

SMB server OS Windows 7 Enterprise

Image Controller Image Controller IC-602

•Precautions

How to create and set a shared folder differs depending on the settings and environment of the computer used.
If you use Scan to SMB with Image Controller IC-602 and Mac OS X 10.7 or later, the following settings are required.
Only NTLMv2 is supported. For details about the setting, refer to Controller NIC Setting Menu: Configuring the Network
Information of the Controller.
Match the date and time of the machine with those of a computer (including a time zone). For details about the date/time setting
of the machine, refer to Date/Time Setting: Setting the Date and Time.
If using Image Controller IC-415 or Image Controller IC-308, Mac OS X 10.7 or later does not support the SMB protocol. To send
scan data to a Macintosh computer, use Scan to FTP.
You can use Scan to SMB on Mac OS 10.6 or earlier (Mac OS 10.3 or later) because it supports SMB protocol.

Creating a shared folder on the Windows desktop

Create a shared folder on the Windows computer. You can receive the scan data sent from the machine to the shared folder and share it
with a client computer.
