Note

  • You cannot preview scanned images. After pressing [Start], you can view the scanned images on your computer.

    • Scan processing is taking a long time.

      The machine will send the scan files again; please wait. Depending on the client computer's settings, you might have to perform a procedure on the client computer directly.

    • The operating system might not support WSD (Push Type) features.

      If the message appears every time you scan an original, it is possible that WSD (Push Type) features cannot be used. Use WSD (Pull Type) for scanning.
