n The list of available recipients that appears on the Specify Recipient screen (in the ShareScan Client)

includes all users in the Windows Active Directory or Novell eDirectory, unless you restrict usage by

choosing a base DN that limits the scope of the search.

41.2- About scan inboxes and home directories

eCopy PaperWorks can use either scan inboxes or network home directories to store scanned documents

received from the Scan to Desktop Connector:

n Scan inboxes: The connector creates scan inboxes when users first use the connector at a device.

The connector creates scan inboxes in folders located beneath the Inbox root directory.

When the connector creates scan inboxes, it assigns the permissions needed to ensure the appropriate

level of scan inbox privacy. The connector uses the ShareScan Administrator group you designate in

the Scan to Desktop Properties window to implement the required security.

n Home Directories: The network administrator must create these directories. If you configure the

connector to use a network home directory to store scanned documents, the connector automatically

uses the Scan to Self and Authenticate Users options. Network security ensures that only the

Local Administrator, the ShareScan Administrator, and the local user can read from or write to the

root of the network home directory or to the specified subdirectory. Scan to Desktop must connect

to the specified folder as the owner of the home directory.

Important!

Network home directories configured through a logon script are not supported.

You configure a Scan to Desktop connector profile to scan to a single inbox type: scan inboxes or network

home directories. You cannot configure the connector profile to scan to both types of inboxes. However, if

you modify the inbox type in the connector profile, so that some users have scan inboxes while others have

network home directories, both types of inboxes can coexist on the same system.
