Required Environment
The following environment is required.
- Connected to a network via TCP/IP
- You must have created a shared folder to serve as the scan data storage destination
Creating a Shared Folder on the Windows Desktop
Create shared folders on a Windows Computer. Scan data from the system is sent to the shared folders and shared with the client computer.
Check the existing user accounts that will have access to the shared folder before setting up the folder, or create new accounts as necessary. User accounts can be either a "local user account" or a "domain user account". "Domain user accounts" can also be configured to allow the transmission of data, but this might not always work properly depending on the network environment being used.

Create the folders to be set as the shared folders.
Example: Create a "Scan-SMB" folder on the Windows desktop.

Right-click the created folder, and select [Properties].

Click the [Sharing] tab, and then click [Advanced Sharing].

Check [Share this folder], and click [Permissions].

Enter the "Computer Name (or domain name)\User Name" into the input field, and then click [Check Names].
The computer name (or domain name) can be abbreviated when it is displayed in [From this location].
If you are not sure of the computer name (or domain name), check [Device name] on the [System] screen. Right-click [Start], and then select [System] to display the [System] screen.
If you are unsure of the user name, check it on the [Accounts] screen. Open the [Settings] screen from the [Start] menu, and then select [Accounts] to display the [Accounts] screen.
The names cannot be found if the information is entered incorrectly. Enter the correct computer name (or domain name) and user name.
