To learn more about WS-Scan, refer to the Microsoft documentation.
Importing a configuration 1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings or Configuration. 2 Click Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF), or click Embedded Solutions. 3 From Installed Solutions, click the name of the application you want to configure. 4 Click Configure > Import. 5 Browse to the saved configuration file, and then load or preview it.

Loading paper and specialty media This section explains how to use the 250-sheet tray, the manual feeder, an optional 550-sheet tray, and the 650-sheet duo drawer with an integrated multipurpose feeder. It also includes information about paper orientation, setting the Paper Size and Paper Type, and linking and unlinking trays. Setting the paper size and type The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the Paper Size menu.
2 Squeeze the length guide tab, and then slide the guide to the correct position for the paper size being loaded. Note: Use the size indicators on the bottom of the tray to help position the guide.
3 If the paper is longer than letter-size paper, then push the green tab at the back of the tray to extend it. 4 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface. 5 Load the paper stack with the recommended print side faceup. 6 Make sure the paper guides are secure against the edges of the paper. Note: Make sure the side guides are placed tightly against the edges of the paper so that the image is registered properly on the page.
7 Insert the tray. 8 If a different type or size of paper was loaded than the type or size previously loaded in the tray, then change the Paper Type or Paper Size setting for the tray from the printer control panel. Note: Mixing paper sizes or types in a paper tray may cause jams. Loading the 650-sheet duo drawer The 650-sheet duo drawer (Tray 2) consists of a 550-sheet tray and an integrated 100-sheet multipurpose feeder.
Loading the multipurpose feeder 1 Push the multipurpose feeder latch to the left. 2 Open the multipurpose feeder. 3 Grasp the extension, and pull it straight out until it is fully extended. 4 Prepare the paper for loading. • Flex sheets of paper back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface. • Hold transparencies by the edges. Straighten the edges on a level surface. Note: Avoid touching the print side of transparencies.
• Flex a stack of envelopes back and forth to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a level surface. Warning—Potential Damage: Never use envelopes with stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or self-stick adhesives. These envelopes may severely damage the printer. 5 Locate the stack height limiter and tab. Note: Do not exceed the maximum stack height by forcing paper under the stack height limiter.
• Load envelopes with the flap side up. Notes: • Do not load or close the multipurpose feeder while a job is printing. • Load only one size and type of paper at a time. 7 Make sure the paper is as far into the multipurpose feeder as it will go with very gentle pushing. Paper should lie flat in the multipurpose feeder. Make sure the paper fits loosely in the multipurpose feeder and is not bent or wrinkled. 8 From the printer control panel, set the Paper Size and Paper Type.
2 When Load Single Sheet Feeder with [paper type] [paper size] appears, load the sheet facedown into the manual feeder. Load envelopes on the left side of the feeder with the flap side up. Note: Align the long edge of the sheet so that it is flush with the right side of the manual feeder. 3 Adjust the width guides until they lightly touch the sheet. Do not force the width guides against the sheet. Doing so may damage the sheet. 4 Push the sheet in until it stops. The printer pulls it in farther.
Linking and unlinking trays Linking trays Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from the next linked tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are automatically linked. The Paper Size setting for all trays must be set manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu.
