3. Scanner Configuration and Setup Instructions
Your Copy scanner supports iJET technology for copy and scan-to-file functionality. The iJET panel
enables you to set options on the scanner so you can copy straight from the device without a controller-
PC and software. Furthermore, your scanner can be connected directly to the LAN enabling it to function
with other devices such as printers and PCs that are on the same network. Finally, your scanner supports
both USB device (input) and USB host (output) interfaces for direct connection to a printer and to a PC
that can control the scanner through scan/copy software.
This wide range of connection and operation capabilities means that your scanner can be set up in many
different ways or configurations to match the needs of your business. For clarity, we have termed the
main configuration possibilities and their components as follows:

Combinations of the above for Multiple
Functionality
The scanner is connected to a local PC and a local
printer. The scanner is also connected directly to
the network in order to be shared by network PCs
and to use network PCs as scan targets. The
scanner can also use network printers.
This Users Guide section describes each of these configurations, including its components, requirements
and step-by-step installation instructions.
NOTE: The combinations of the first three configurations (present in above list as configuration
nr. 4) are not only possible, but in many cases also recommended in order to get the full range of scan-to-
file and copy functions out of your device and maximum flexibility for your business .
More on combining configurations in the section Combining Configuration Types for Multiple
Functionality.
NOTE: About interface connection cables: Your scanner came with a number of interface cables. Refer
to the supplied document: NOTE ON INTEFACE CABLES for instructions on which cables to use with
your specific configuration.
