Scan to FTP (For MFC-7460DN, MFC-7860DN and MFC-7860DW) 13

When you choose Scan to FTP, you can scan a black and white or colour document directly to an FTP server

on your local network, or on the internet.

The details required to use Scan to FTP can be entered by using Web Based Management to pre-configure

and store the details in an FTP Profile.

Note

• Scan to FTP is available when FTP profiles are configured by using Web Based Management.

• We recommend Microsoft

Internet Explorer

6.0 (or greater) or Firefox 3.0 (or greater) for Windows

and

Safari 3.0 (or greater) for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always

enabled in whichever browser you use. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with

HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.

To use Web Based Management, type http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP

address of your machine) into your browser, and then you can configure or change the settings in FTP Scan

Profile in Administrator Settings. You can configure up to ten FTP server profiles and you can choose what

profile numbers (1 to 10) to use for Scan to FTP settings in FTP Scan Settings.

Note

If you want to find the IP address of your machine, see Printing the Network Configuration List in the

Network User's Guide.

In addition to the seven preset file names you can store two user defined file names that can be used for

creating an FTP Server Profile.

Choose FTP Scan Settings in Web Based Management. In Create a User Defined File Name, enter a file

name in one of the two user defined fields and click Submit. A maximum of 15 characters can be entered in

each of the user defined name fields.
