Setting A Shared Folder As A Save Location - Canon MF8580Cdw User Manual

Setting a Shared Folder as a Save Location

The feature of scanning to shared folders is also called "Scan to SMB" because the feature uses Server Message Block (SMB), a
Windows-specific technology. SMB is a protocol for sharing resources, such as files and printers, with more than one device in a network
( Configuring SMB). To configure the machine for saving your scanned documents into a shared folder in the network via SMB, specify
the location of the shared folder from a computer by using the Send Function Setting Tool.
NOTE
You can also use the Remote UI to specify the location of the shared folder by registering the folder to the Address Book. The
Send Function Setting Tool is helpful for users who want to complete the setup easily.
