feature that enables it to scan a document and save it to a network folder. To use this scan feature, the
printer must be connected to a network; however, the feature is not available until it has been congured by
using the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS). There are two methods in the EWS for conguring Scan to network
folder. Use the Save to Network Folder Setup page for advanced conguration, or use the Scan to Network
Folder Setup Wizard for basic conguration.
