Useful tips
Here are some useful tips for scanning documents.
Where are scanned images saved? Can the save destination be
changed?
Images are saved to the following locations, according to program
settings.
For example, save locations such as the following can be set in
CaptureOnTouch.
CaptureOnTouch
• For Scan First scanning, files are saved in the folder specified on the
Output Settings screen.
• For selected job scanning, files are saved in the folder specified on
the [Output setting] during job registration.
CapturePerfect
• During normal scanning operations such as single-page scanning,
the image file save destination can be specified each time scanning
is performed.

specified by the job settings.
How are the scan settings configured?
CaptureOnTouch

screen to display available scan settings.

registration to display available scan settings.

to open the scanner driver setting screen, and make settings there.

How do I save multiple pages in one file, or save one file per
page?
When scanned images are saved in BMP (PICT) or JPEG format,
each image is always saved in a separate file.
When scanned images are saved in PDF or TIFF format, you can
specify multi- or single-page files. See also “Problem 9” in “Common
Problems and Solutions”.
Can I copy or back up scanner setting configurations?

also the following question, “Can I copy or back up CaptureOnTouch

The setting configurations can be backed up and restored using
[Back Up/Restore] on the [Basic settings] tab on the [Environmental
settings] dialog box.
What rules apply to scanned image file names?
In CaptureOnTouch, scanned image file names are constructed
according to the settings in the [File name settings] dialog box. This
dialog box appears when you click
on the [File name] on the Scan
First output settings screen, and on the [Output setting] tab on the
Register new job screen.

to the following three settings in the dialog box.
