Setting Up a Computer as a File Server

To send data from the machine to a computer on your network, you need to specify
the settings of the computer for receiving data. You can send data over a NetBIOS
network to a Windows or Samba (UNIX/Linux) shared folder. This section describes
how to configure a shared folder.
IMPORTANT
•
Samba 2.2.8a or later is supported.
•
This section describes only the procedures for setting up a computer receiving data sent
from the machine. To send data from the machine to a server on the network, you must
enter an address setting from the control panel. For instructions on how to specify
recipient address settings, see Chapter 2, "Basic Sending Methods," in the Sending and
Facsimile Guide.
•
The following procedures describe a sample shared folder configuration. Depending on
your environment, the actual configuration procedure may differ.

Connecting to a TCP/IP Network

A computer that receives data sent from the machine must have TCP/IP client
software installed and must be enabled for TCP/IP network use. For details, see the
manuals provided with your operating system.
You can send data over a TCP/IP network from the machine to an FTP server. For
instructions on how to set up an FTP server, see "Setting Up a Computer as a File
Server," on p. 3-54.
