To use the service, the scanner must be configured to have access to the watched folder. Also, the administrators of the
Send to eCopy service must supply an instruction image, which contains guidelines for the scanning procedure, and is
displayed at the ScanStation screen when accessing the Send to eCopy service.
The functionality supports the following file types:
n Single-page:.bmp, .jpeg, and .tif
n Multi-page:.tif, .pdf
To use the functionality, the “replaced” device must be able and configured to produce files in the above formats.
5.2.1 - Send to eCopy configuration options
The service is available via the Scanners tab of the Settings pane in the Administration Console. To use Send to
eCopy, ensure that you have selected the ScanStation workstation as the device.
5.2.1.1 - Confi guration Setti ngs:
n Driver name: here you can select the scanner which is “replaced” by the Send to eCopy service.
n Show Title Bar: checking this option allows you to set whether the ScanStation title bar is visible. If the title
bar is not visible, the ScanStation application runs in Kiosk mode.
n Password (exit): The password that must be typed to exit the application when it runs in Kiosk mode.
5.2.1.2 - Send To EC opy ShareScan Settings
n Instructions Image: the location of the instruction image. While Nuance supplies a default image, Send to
eCopy users should modify this image depending on the scanner models and the actual UI language they use
with the service.
n Watch Folder: this is the local folder or network shared folder that the service is watching for scanned
documents.
n Filter: here, you can select which types of image files you wish to see. Other files are ignored by the Send to
eCopy service.
n Inactivity Timeout: here you can set the timeout value (in milliseconds)for the communication between the
scanner and the Send to eCopy service. If the images have arrived and the application does not pick them
within this timespan, the Send to eCopy service deletes them.
n Session Timeout: here you can set the timeout value (in milliseconds) for the communication between the
ScanStation application and the Send to eCopy service. At the beginning of each scanning session, the
application opens a session and receives a new session ID from the Send to eCopy service. After that, the
application uses this session in all subsequent Send to eCopy service calls. If there is no call from the
application to the Send to eCopy service within the timeframe specified here, the service considers that the
application stopped working and terminates the session. This also means that any remaining images are
deleted.
n First Page Timeout: this value controls how long the ScanStation application waits for the first page of the
scan job to arrive from the Send to eCopy service. The value is given in milliseconds.
n Next Page Timeout: this value controls how long the ScanStation application waits between receiving the
additional pages of the scan job. The value is given in milliseconds.
