Site Configuration
Edit Device Configuration Defaults
The Device Configuration Defaults enable you to customize and prioritize the settings SMARTsend will use 
when configuring devices. To access this page, open the Manage Xerox Devices page and click the Edit 
Device Configuration Defaults... link in the left panel.  
If necessary, these settings can be changed for each individual device by editing the device properties. 
Device properties can be accessed from the Manage Xerox Devices page by clicking on the Device 
Properties icon 
.
Data Transfer Protocols
The Data Transfer Protocol options define the protocols that can be used to transmit data between the 
SMARTsend computer and the Xerox Multifunction Devices. The supported protocols must be enabled 
within SMARTsend in order for them to be utilized when configuring devices.

:
Confirm that the ports required for each supported protocol are not blocked by filtering at a switch,  
router, or firewall
 for additional information.
Enabled
The Enabled selection box lists the protocols that SMARTsend supports. Check the boxes to enable 
protocols that are supported by your Xerox Multifunction Devices and your application computer:
„
FTP—Use for faster data transfer and compatibility with all devices. The FTP filing protocol is the 
default setting. Keep in mind that the IIS FTP service must be enabled and running on the SMARTsend 
computer if FTP filing is used. See Install and Configure IIS / FTP on page 2-10.
„
SMB—Use for more secure data transfer. If SMB is selected when SMB is not supported (or 
configured) on the device, then an alternate protocol will be used, as defined by the Priority setting (see 
below).
„
HTTP—Use for faster data transfer. This protocol may not be supported on older devices.  
„
HTTPS—Use for more secure data transfer. This protocol may not be supported on older devices.

Changing these settings will not affect devices that have already been configured.

If you are allowing SMARTsend to manage the device accounts that will be used for filing, an 
account will be created on the SMARTsend computer for each selected protocol.

:
If a device does not support SMB or HTTP or HTTPS, you must add FTP support to IIS 
on the SMARTsend computer. If FTP support has been added to IIS after SMARTsend was 
installed, run Add/Remove Programs, select SMARTsend, click Change, and click Repair to 
update the application. See Install and Configure IIS / FTP on page 2-10 of Chapter 2, Prepare 
for Installation
