3. Network Scanner Option Introduction The FO-NS2 Network Scanner Expansion Kit allows you to scan a document and directly transmit the image to an e-mail address (Scan to E-mail), FTP server (Scan to FTP), or computer desktop on your network (Scan to Desktop). To use this option, the machine must be connected to a network. 3.
Introduction Steps required for setup The following steps are necessary to use the network scanner option. The steps must be completed in the order shown. 1. Your dealer must install the FO-LN1 network interface kit and the FO-NS2 network scanner kit, and enter the network scanner product key. The machine must be connected to the network. 2. The IP address of the machine must be set as explained on page 73. 3. E-mail server and DNS server settings must be configured in the Web page in the machine.
Setting the IP Address Setting the IP Address Note: Although “DHCP” is available as a setting for the IP address (this means that the machine automatically obtains an address from a DHCP server), it is recommended that a permanent IP address be assigned to the machine. If DHCP must be used, it is recommended that the DHCP lease time for the IP address be set to unlimited.
Setting the IP Address 5 If the machine will receive an IP address automatically from a DHCP server, make sure that “YES” is selected (this will enable DHCP). If the machine will be assigned a permanent IP address, press or to select “NO”. 6 Press START/ ENTER . • If you enabled DHCP by selecting “YES” in the previous step, this completes the setting. Wait while the machine writes the setting to the NIC board (“DO NOT POWER DOWN” will appear in the display).
Setting the IP Address 11 Wait while the machine writes the setting to the NIC board (“DO NOT POWER DOWN” will appear in the display). When the display changes to “OK”, turn off the power of the machine and then turn it back on to make the new settings take effect. (Before turning off the power, make sure the machine is not in the middle of a job: 1) check whether the machine JOB STATUS 3.
