Scan to Home
Scan to Home Overview
The SMARTsend Scan to Home feature enables you to scan and deliver documents to a defined user's home 
scan destination. This destination can be a network folder, an FTP site or an e-mail address.
An intuitive and flexible Scan to Home Utility allows you to generate mappings of users to home scan 
destinations using Microsoft Active Directory, LDAP, NT Domains, or manual entry.
The SMARTsend application enables you to publish device scan templates for individual users and/or 
groups to a device configured for use with SMARTsend.
Once a list of users and directory service mappings has been generated and saved as a CSV file, the export 
procedure is complete. You then use the Scan to Home features of the SMARTsend application to import the 
information from the CSV file to the SMARTsend database, provide filing credentials and publish Scan to 
Home device scan templates to devices that have been configured for use with SMARTsend. The same CSV 
file can be used at multiple SMARTsend computers, enabling greater efficiency in deployment.
With user authentication at the Xerox Multifunction Device or document attribute field (metadata) 
authentication enabled, a single scan template can direct jobs to a user's home scan destination. If desired, 
individual templates per user can also be generated for one touch access.
