3 Using IP Scanner

✎

Note

In order for a computer to be used as a recipient, the TCP/IP setting
must first be specified.

3.1 IP Scanner

G First, install IP Scanner onto the computer.

Refer to “Installing IP Scanner”.

G The transmitted image is received by the Image Receiver, and saved

by IP Scanner as an image file in the “My Images” folder.
If the “Save folder as a key” check box in the main window was
selected, a new folder with the same name as the scanner button is
created and the image file is saved in that folder.
*This setting is available only if the document is scanned with a
scanner function. For details on saving the data when the received fax
document is transferred to IP Scanner, refer to “Sort Settings dialog
box” on page 3-11.

G When using IP Scanner, be sure that Image Receiver is running.

While Image Receiver is running, its icon ( ) appears in the Windows
taskbar. Normally, Image Receiver starts up automatically when
Windows starts up. If Image Receiver has not started up, start it up as
described below.

Using IP Scanner

Using a dial-up router

G When using IP Scanner, be sure that the IP address of the main device

is correctly specified.
If an incorrect IP address is specified in an environment where a dial­up router is used, the dial-up router may unnecessarily be dialed up.
In addition, depending on the network environment of the computer,
the dial-up router may be unnecessarily dialed up, regardless of
whether the correct IP address was specified.

Using a modem or terminal adapter

G If a computer with a built-in modem (or a computer connected to

terminal adapter) is used, they may be used to dial up.
If this occurs, select either “Never dial a connection” or “Dial whenever
a network connection is not present” in the “Dial-up settings” group box
on the Connections tab of the Internet Properties dialog box. For
details, refer to the instruction manual for the operating system.
