Features and Functions The Imagistics Electronic Document Processing Systems provide network scanning capability with a wide range of options but requires a minimum of time spent setting up scan templates. This chapter describes the functionality of the Scan feature and its components.
E-mail or iFax jobs Software Components The Scan feature uses several utilities that are supplied with the Imagistics Electronic Document Processing System. This system consists of the copier and the controller, a computer located inside the copier. Printer Drivers Printer drivers enable devices, such as the controller, to receive information for printing from an application program.
For further details, refer to the Document Manager Operator’s Guide or online Help. For full details on using Printer Utility, refer to the Operator’s Guide on the ipc1-im8130 Client CD-ROM or the Administrator’s Guide on the ipc1- im8130 Admin’s Client CD-ROM.
