5 Scanning
This chapter describes the basic scanning procedure and how to check scanned 
documents stored in mailboxes. It also provides information on how to import the 
scanned documents to a computer and how to delete documents in a mailbox.
Scanning Procedure
You can scan documents on the machine and save the scanned data in a specified 
mailbox. To use the scan features, a mailbox must be created in advance using 
CentreWare Internet Services. For information on how to create a mailbox, refer to the 
Scanner Environment Settings chapter in the System Administration Guide.
The following procedure describes the basic scanning procedure.
NOTE: Before starting the scanning procedure, confirm the mailbox number that you 
want to save the scanned data to.
NOTE: If the machine is switched off, data currently being processed may be lost, and 
all the scanned data stored in mailboxes will be deleted.
NOTE: If the machine receives a print job while you are setting the scan options on 
the Control Panel, the scan operation will be interrupted until the print job is finished. 
After the machine has finished printing, you can continue the remaining settings for 
the scan job.
