Using As A Simple File Server - Canon imagerunner advance C5550i User Manual

Using as a Simple File Server

The hard disk installed in the machine has a shared storage called "Advanced Box." This space can be used as a file
server as it enables you to save scanned documents and perform file operations (viewing/saving/downloading) from a
computer. The Advanced Box has two types of storage locations inside: "Shared Space" that allows the access of
multiple computers and "Personal Space" that serves as a personal storage area, not open to the public. Use these
storage locations differently. For example, for data you want to share with the staff in an office, save in "Shared Space,"
while for highly confidential data, save in "Personal Space."
● To use the Advanced Box, some settings need to be specified beforehand.

● To use the Personal Space, both the personal authentication management and Personal Space settings need
to be specified beforehand.
● As the Advanced Box is intended for use on a network, it normally requires a user authentication during use.
If the login screen is displayed when accessing the Advanced Box, enter the same user name and password
as those used when logging in to the machine. When your operations are complete, be sure to press
log out.
● Installing an optional HDD enables you to expand the storage area of the Advanced Box.

● By connecting the machine with another Canon multifunction printer*, data in the Advanced Box of both
machines can be shared.
* Available only for imageRUNNER ADVANCE series machines connected to a network
