The MFP scanner lets you scan documents directly to a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server. Note: Only one FTP address may be sent to at a time. Once an FTP destination has been configured by your system administrator, the name of the destination becomes available as a shortcut number or listed as a profile under the Held Jobs icon.
Creating shortcuts Instead of entering the entire FTP site address on the control panel each time you want to send a document to an FTP, you can create a permanent FTP destination and assign a shortcut number. A single shortcut number or a multiple number shortcut can be created.

Sides (Duplex): Tells the MFP if your original document is simplex (printed on one side) or duplex (printed on both sides). This lets the scanner know what needs to be scanned for inclusion in the e-mail. Binding: Tells the MFP whether the original document is bound on the long-edge or short-edge side. Base File Name: Lets you enter a file name.

FTP tips The following tips may improve the MFP FTP quality. Question When should I use Text mode? • Text mode should be used when text preservation is the main goal of sending a document to an FTP site, and preserving images copied from the original document is not a concern.
