3. Sending Scan Files Using WSD
Web Services on Devices (WSD) is a function that can be used with Windows Vista, Windows 7, and
other compatible operating systems. Using WSD, you can send files scanned by this machine to a
designated computer on your network.
Before Sending Scan Files Using WSD
This section explains the preparations and procedures for using WSD.
This machine provides the following two forms of WSD scanning:
• WSD (Push Type)
This allows you to send scan files to a client computer through the network.
To begin a scan job, press the [Start] key on the machine. Note that you cannot scan originals from
client computers.
• WSD (Pull Type)
This allows you to send scanning requests to this machine from a client computer through the
network.
To begin a scan job, send a scanning request from a client computer.
• Compatible Operating Systems
• Operating systems compatible with WSD include Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows
Server 2008/2008 R2. Check your operating system's Help files or online support for
compatibility information.
• Some operating systems do not support WSD features.
• When personal authentication or user code authentication is set:
• WSD (Push Type)
The [Display WSD Destination List] setting in Web Image Monitor will be reset to [Do not
Display]. To use WSD (Push Type) after configuring authentication, you must specify this
setting in Web Image Monitor again. For details, see "Enabling WSD using Web Image
Monitor".
• WSD (Pull Type)
Users restricted by personal authentication or user code authentication cannot use WSD (Pull
Type).
• The example explanations in this manual are based on Windows Vista Ultimate. Procedures for
other operating systems may differ slightly.
