Scanning and Faxing

Configure a Fax Filing Repository using FTP

Installation Checklist
1. Ensure that a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) service is running on the fax server where images scanned
by the printer will be stored. Write down the IP address or Host Name.
2. Create a user account (login name) and password for the printer on the server. When a document is
scanned, the printer logs in using the account, transfers the file to the server, and logs out. Write
down the user account (login name) and password.
3. Following the fax server software manufacturer's instructions, create a directory (repository) on the
server (likely within the FTP root) to be used as a scan filing location. Write down the directory
name and path to same.
4. If allowed by the fax server software manufacturer, test the FTP connection by logging into the
scan directory from a remote PC using the user account and password. Create a new folder within
the directory and then delete the folder. If you cannot perform this function, check the user
account access rights and FTP service setup. You can also wait until you have finished setting up
device to server communications, as stated in this section, then send a fax to the server to test the
communications setup.
