Incompatible Devices
Not all devices are compatible with EPM. If a device is not compatible with the protocols used in EPM, warning
message will display in the contents area.
If this page is encountered from the Device Settings menu, the Link to Program button will open SyncThru™
Web Service if the device is a network device and to Printer Settings Utility (PSU) (if installed) if the device is a
local device. If this page is encountered from the Scan to PC Settings menu, the Link to Program button will
open Scan Assistant. If this page is encountered from the Fax to PC Settings menu, the Link to Program button
will open the fax application.
Saving Settings
Located at the bottom of every main menu’s page are a Save button and a Default button.
To save any setting changes made, click the Save button; to restore the device’s default settings, click the
Default button. To save changes or restore defaults, you are required to login if the SWS ID is locked.
Device Discovery
Before you can take advantage of the benefits offered by EPM, you must add devices to the device list. EPM
offers three types of device discovery:
• Broadcast - use this method to search the entire network for devices.
• IP Address - use this method to search for locally connected devices or when you just need to search
for one device and know the device’s IPv4 address.
• IP Range - use this method to search only a small portion of the network. This also only searches IPv4
addresses.
Find the printer using Broadcast
The broadcast method of device discovery will search the entire network for connected devices. Follow
these steps to use this method:
1. Click the Add button in the device list. The “Add Printer” window will open.
2. Click the Search icon. The list is populated with the found devices.
3. Select the devices to be added to the device list.
4. Click Add to add the devices. A confirmation window will display. Click Yes to add the devices.
NOTE: If an error occurs while trying to connect to a device, error window will display. Click OK to close
the window and check the printer. The window will close automatically after printers are added.
Find the printer using IP Address (IPv4)
The IP Address method of device discovery will search the entire network for the given IP address. Follow
these steps to use this method:
1. Click the Add button in the device list. The “Add Device” window will open.
2. Select Search by IP address, type the IP address, and then click Search to search for a network
device. If you’re adding a locally connected printer, click
Add.
The list is populated with the device if it is found; otherwise, it remains empty.
3. Select the device to add it to the device list.
4. Click Add to add the devices. A confirmation window will display. Click Yes to add the devices.
