Note

If your machine software level is version 2.0, the documents are stored on the machine in the Mailbox. If your machine software level is version 3.0, the documents are stored on the machine in the Folder. The terms “Mailbox” and “Folder” are used synonymously to express the same thing.

The mailbox/folder Backup Tool for restored document is a software application that allows you to:

•Copy and save (backup) documents and mailboxes/folders from the machine onto your personal computer’s hard drive or onto a secondary backup device that is attached to your computer (such as USB flash drive);

•Create, copy, delete, or change settings from your computer for documents/mailboxes/ folders that reside on the machine; and

•Restore the backed-up (copied) documents/mailboxes/folders from your computer to the machine.

Note

Always refer to the software application’s online Help for information on the various features and functions. The online Help can be accessed by starting the application and selecting Help.

The Migration Tool for Restored Document is a software application that works in conjunction with the Backup Tool for restored document application. The Migration Tool converts the saved documents and mailboxes/folders residing on your computer into a format supported by your machine’s upgraded software level. This allows you to restore these saved documents and mailboxes/folders onto your machine after the completion of its software upgrade.

Introduction

Xerox 4112/4127 Copier/Printer

Use the Backup Tool for restored document application when:

•You want to periodically backup your machine’s documents and mailboxes/folders,

•You need/want to restore the backed-up documents/mailboxes/folders onto the machine, and most importantly,

•The machine’s software is upgraded; all the documents and mailboxes/folders stored locally on the machine will be lost/deleted at the time of the software upgrade.

The following important criteria applies when using the Backup Tool for restored document application:

•The machine cannot be used while making backups.

•When using the backup documents on any 4112/4127 Copier/Printer, ensure that all the settings on the machine along with the paper tray settings are exactly the same as when the backup documents were saved to your computer.

Tip

If these settings are not the same, or if optional features were added to the machine after the mailbox/folder documents were backed up (copied and saved), then the restored documents may not print in accordance with their original settings.

•Always refer to these Backup Tool for restored document files for additional information: manual.pdf and readme.txt; refer to “Operating Environment” on page 4-1.

Use the Migration tool application:

•After the documents and mailboxes/folders have been saved/backed up to your client’s computer,

•After the machine’s software is upgraded, and finally,

•To convert and restore the copied/saved documents and mailboxes/folders on your local computer onto the upgraded machine.

Tip

•Documents that are scanned on the machine and saved to a mailbox/folder will be lost during a software upgrade. To prevent the loss of the (Scan to Mailbox/Folder) documents, you can save them to a client’s computer before a machine upgrade. After the machine upgrade is completed, you can then resubmit the saved documents to the machine’s mailbox/folder.

•The User Interface (UI) screens shown in this document may or may not reflect the screens displayed on your system or on your personal computer. The UI screens vary from system

to system, computer to computer, and from marketplace to marketplace. Therefore, the UI screens in this document show examples of the type of screens that may be seen on your particular system/computer.

This chapter describes how to import files that are stored in a machine’s mailbox/folder (Scan to Mailbox/Folder) onto a client’s computer by using the CentreWare Internet Services .

Before you can retrieve scanned documents from the machine to your computer, read the following prerequisites and use the ones applicable to your network environment:

•Ask your system administrator for the IP address or internet address of your machine.

•If your network uses DNS (Domain Name System) and the machine’s host name is registered, you can access the machine using the internet address with a combination of the host name and domain name. For example, the internet address may be “myhost.example.com”: “myhost” represents the host name, while “example.com” represents the domain name.

•When specifying a port number, add a colon “:” and the port number after the IP address or internet address.

•If the machine uses the authentication feature, enter a user ID and passcode into the User Name and Passcode fields. Ask your system administrator for the user ID and passcode.

•If communications are encrypted, you must specify an address that starts with “https” instead of “http” in order to access CentreWare Internet Services.
