Sharpdesk Information Guide

Sharpdesk CD-ROM (for Windows)

The CD-ROM contains the following software programs:

Sharpdesk (Desktop Document Management Software)

Sharpdesk lets you manage a variety of electronic information such as scanned image data from the machine or documents created using word processing or spreadsheet application software. A color image scanned on the machine can be saved as a PDF file using a high compression ratio to reduce the file size. (To view a PDF file saved using a high compression ratio, the latest version of Adobe Reader is required.) * Sharpdesk can only be installed on the number of computers
indicated in "Sharpdesk Serial Numbers" on the cover of this manual. If you need to install Sharpdesk on additional computers, please purchase the optional license kit. (If the version of the software on the CD-ROM in the license kit is different from the version of the software on the CD-ROM that accompanies the machine, it is recommended that you use the newest version of the software.)
Network Scanner Tool
This is a utility that helps you use Scan to Desktop. It configures the necessary settings in the machine and client computer to receive data. In addition, Network Scanner Tool will automatically start Sharpdesk upon receiving image data.
SHARP TWAIN AR/DM
This is a driver that allows you to use the scanning function of the machine from a software application that supports the TWAIN standard. (Images can only be scanned in monochrome.) * SHARP TWAIN AR/DM cannot be used in Windows Vista.

Points to note when installing the software

Note the following when installing the software program from the CD­ROM:
Be sure to check the system requirements for installation of each of
the software programs in the user's guides and on the Information screen during installation.
The user's guides give detailed instructions for installing and setting
up the programs. Be sure to read the user's guides before installing the programs. In particular, if you are going to use Network Scanner Tool, be sure to carefully read the instructions regarding network preparation and setup procedures before installing the program. The network administrator should verify that network preparation has been carried out correctly.
If you are going to send an original scanned with the machine to a
computer (Scan to Desktop), Network Scanner Tool must be installed.
If you perform a standard installation of Sharpdesk (select "Typical" in
the Setup Type selection screen), Network Scanner Tool will be also be installed, alternatively you can also select "Custom" installation and install only Network Scanner Tool.
If you intend to install SHARP TWAIN AR/DM, install Network
Scanner Tool first. SHARP TWAIN AR/DM cannot be installed alone.
The contents of the Information screens that appear during
installation can also be found in the ReadMe files on the same CD­ROM. The ReadMe file for Sharpdesk is located in the root folder of the CD-ROM, and the ReadMe file for SHARP TWAIN AR/DM is located in the Twain folder.

Sharpdesk Imaging*

Sharpdesk Imaging is installed together with Sharpdesk.

If Eastman Software's "Imaging for Windows Professional Edition"
has already been installed on your computer, Sharpdesk Imaging will not be installed.
"Imaging for Windows Professional Edition" and Sharpdesk Imaging
use common registry entries, and installing "Imaging for Windows Professional Edition" after Sharpdesk Imaging has been installed may result in abnormal operation. In this case, uninstall Sharpdesk and Sharpdesk Imaging, and then install "Imaging for Windows Professional Edition". After that, reinstall Sharpdesk.
* Sharpdesk Imaging is a version of Eastman Software's Imaging for
Windows Professional Edition that has been customized by the Sharp Corporation.
