Step 1 – To begin programming your copier to scan to email, first press the User Tools/Counter button on the copier control panel.

Step 2 – Then select System Settings by clicking on the touch screen and then the File Transfer tab.

Step 3 – Select SMTP Server and enter the hostname of your mail server. Note that if you haven’t configured DNS (Domain Name System), you’ll need to enter the SMTP server’s IP address instead of its name.

Step 4 – Just below the name, select SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) if your server requires it.

Step 5 – If your server is using a different port than the default, enter the correct port number on the screen.

Step 6 – If you find a button on Test connection, click on it to test the copier that it can connect to the SMTP server.

Step 8 – The next step is to obtain SMTP authentication. You can skip this step if your server doesn’t require it, or click on this option and fill in your username, email address, and password. If you don’t need to switch servers, you can select the Auto option in the encryption setting.

Step 9 – Select OK to save it.

Step 10 – Find the Administrator’s email address and select it to enter the email address you want to display when you send scans from the copier.

Step 11 – Choose Specify Sender Automatically from the File Transfer menu and enable it, then click OK to save it.

Step 12 – Finally, exit User Tools and let your copier adapt to the new configuration, then you can easily scan your emails.
