Scanning Device and Application Migration
Skip this section if network scanning applications are not currently in use within your organization.
If other scanning applications or services are being used at your site, you should consider the various 
impacts that a new SMARTsend installation will have on your existing scanning resources. Consider the 
following factors when determining your migration strategy: 
„
SMARTsend cannot be installed on the same computer as Xerox FlowPort. 
„
The SMARTsend computer cannot be a domain controller.
„
SMARTsend can import templates that were created with CentreWare Network Scanning Services. See 
Template Importer on page 8-3 for add
itional information. 
„
Xerox Multifunction Devices cannot be configured for simultaneous use with both SMARTsend and 
CentreWare Network Scanning Services because each application must use the Default Repository. 
Therefore, each application must manage a different set of devices.
„
During device configuration, SMARTsend overwrites the Default Repository and Template Pool scan 
settings of a Xerox Multifunction Device. If you have existing applications that use the Default 
Repository, reconfigure the device to use an Alternate Repository for those applications before 
configuring the device to use SMARTsend.
For example, to use a Xerox Multifunction Device with both FlowPort and SMARTsend, you must 
reconfigure the device to use an Alternate Repository for FlowPort before configuring the device with 
SMARTsend. Likewise, templates created using CentreWare Internet Services must also be modified if 
they currently utilize the Default Repository.

If any Xerox Multifunction Devices intended for use with SMARTsend are already configured for use 
with other scanning applications, then you should print and save a configuration sheet for those devices 
before you configure them for use with SMARTsend. The configuration sheet lists the current network 
scanning configuration, which may be useful in the future if the device needs to be reverted back to a 
previous configuration.
„
If FlowPort and SMARTsend are configured in the same office environment on different computers, 
care must be taken to select the correct template at the device when using FlowPort or SMARTsend. 
Under these circumstances, the FlowPort computer should be assigned an alternate repository when 
configuring the Xerox Multifunction Device. Users must also ensure they select a SMARTsend 
template at the device when scanning. PaperWare (Professional Edition feature) users must select the 
SMARTsend PaperWare template.
„
Beginning with Release 2.0, SMARTsend can process PaperWare forms (Professional Edition feature) 
that were created on other SMARTsend or Xerox Flowport computers. This option improves usability 
and extends the power of SMARTsend within the enterprise by effectively increasing the number of 
devices that can be used to initiate scan jobs from a single PaperWare cover sheet. See Configure 
PaperWare Form Forwarding Settings
