Scan to Home folder / Print from Home folder
Introduction
Home folders are private network locations where the Active Directory users can store their files.
With the 'Scan to Home folder' feature, an authenticated user can send scanned files from the
system directly to his/her Microsoft Active Directory Home folder.
The authenticated user can also print files from his/her Home folder.
Pre-requisites
To allow a user to scan files to his/her Home folder, the following configurations are required:
• In the Microsoft Active Directory:
- A Home folder, that is a UNC path location, exists for each user
- Users have the Read and Write rights to their private Home folder
• In the printer configuration:
- The User authentication is enabled
- The User authentication is configured with 'User name and password' (no Smart card or
Contactless card)
The 'Home folder' location is then automatically created as an 'External location'. You can
open the 'External locations' tab in 'Configuration' to see this 'Home folder' new location.
- The domain is created and configured
In the domain 'Advanced settings' keep the default 'homeDirectory' value in the 'LDAP
attribute for Home folder'.
- Check that the printer 'Current date and time' and 'Time zone' values are correct (in Océ
Express WebTools, Configuration - System defaults)
Refer to Configure the user authentication by user name and password on page 334
detailed procedure.
It is recommended that the System Administrator validates this new configuration by clicking
'Validate this configuration' in 'Security' - 'Configuration' (see
page 336).
Scan to the Home folder
There are 2 ways to send a scanned filed to the home folder:
Using a predefined scan template
A Key Operator can create a scan template in which the default destination for the scanned files is
the authenticated user's Home folder:
In Océ Express WebTools for the system, in the 'Preference' - 'Scan' tab, create a new template
and set:
• the 'Scan destination type' to ' To External locations'
• The 'External location' to 'Home folder'
This scan template will be available to the authenticated users when they browse the list of scan
templates. They can select it to scan to their private Home folder.
Selecting the Home folder destination at the system panel
An authenticated user can always select the 'Home folder' in the scan settings at the moment
when he scans a document:
1. At the system panel, open the Scan settings
2. In 'Workflow', select the 'Network location' type and then the 'Home folder' as the destination.
