Scan to PC (FTP/SMB)

Overview

This feature is designed to convert scanned data to TIFF, JPEG, or PDF format, and then use the FTP or 
SMB protocol to send the data to a computer (server or computer) on the network.

Note:

It is assumed that you purchased the Scanning option to enable Scanning to FTP/SMB with your 

printer. If you did not, contact your Xerox Representative to purchase this option.

Note:

For scanning to SMB, make sure that a shared folder is created for saving scanned data on the 

network.

Note:

For scanning to FTP, make sure that the server is running the FTP service and that you have 

created a directory within the FTP root to be used as a scan filing location.

When using FTP transmission, one of the following FTP servers, with an account on that server (login 
name and password), is required.
