Installing the Network Scanner Software

To use the Scan to Desktop function, the following two software programs 
must be installed in your computer (the destination computer for Scan to 
Desktop). The programs are installed from the CD-ROM that comes with the 
network scanner expansion kit. 

♦

Sharpdesk (Desktop Document Management Software)

♦

Network Scanner Tool

Note: Sharpdesk can be installed and used in 5 computers. If you need to install 
Sharpdesk in more than 5 computers, please contact your Sharp dealer.

For detailed information on each of the software programs, please refer to the 
user's guides on the CD-ROM.

Sharpdesk lets you manage a variety of electronic information such as 
scanned image data from the network scanner or documents created using 
word processing or spreadsheet application software. Some of the important 
features of Sharpdesk are:

♦

Sharpdesk works with your scanner to let you read paper documents into 
your computer using a full-featured set of scanning controls and options.

♦

Sharpdesk makes editing of your images and documents quick and easy.

♦

A text image scanned into Sharpdesk can be converted into editable text for 
use with your favorite word processor. Sharpdesk uses an advanced 
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine that even preserves your 
document layouts. 
Note: For the best results, set the resolution to ULTRA FINE when 
scanning a document for OCR conversion. 

This is a utility that helps you use Scan to Desktop. It configures the 
necessary settings in the network scanner and client computer to receive 
data. In addition, Network Scanner Tool will automatically start Sharpdesk 
when image data is received. The scanned image received by your computer
