104 | Quick Start: Setting up MFP devices to work with Send to eCopy
Configuring a Sharp MFP
To configure a Sharp MFP to use with Send to eCopy, you create a profile that uses a shared
network folder (see page 104) that uses the Microsoft SMB (Server Message Block) Protocol, or a
profile that uses an FTP folder (see page 105).
You can then scan documents to the scan destination (see page 107).
Creating a profile that uses a shared network folder
If you are using a shared network folder (SMB) to store scanned image documents on the
ScanStation, you specify the path to the target folder in a profile. You can use an existing profile
or you can create a new profile. The user at the MFP selects the scan destination specified in the
profile.
You should use the Sharp Network Scanner Tool — not the Web Setup button — to create any
profiles that you plan to use with Send to eCopy.
The instructions in this section assume that you have installed Sharpdesk and accepted the default
profiles. The procedure describes only the steps that you need to complete to enable use of the
MFP with Send to eCopy.
To create a profile that uses a shared network folder:
1 To run the Network Scanner Tool, select Start > Programs > Sharpdesk > Network
Scanner Tool.
The Profiles tab lists all available profiles. You can use an existing profile with Send to
eCopy.
2 On the Profiles tab, click New.
The Properties for Profile window opens.
3 Specify the profile name, which will appear on the MFP’s control panel, and descriptive
information, such as, “Scan to shared folder for eCopy”.
4 Select the Move File to Folder check box and then click Details.
The Send To Folder window opens.
