Chapter 3 ScanFront Setup
❏
Network Settings
Under Network Settings, configure the device name and IP
address needed to connect the scanner to a network.
IMPORTANT
• Configure network settings while the network cable is
connected to the scanner. If the network cable is not
connected to the scanner, you will not be able to verify or
modify settings in the network settings screen.
• The device name is the name for the scanner used on the
network. When changing this setting, make sure to select a
unique name that is different from those of all other devices.
• The device name can be a combination of letters (A-Z, a-z),
numbers (0-9), and hyphens (-) up to 15 characters long.
• The device name must begin with a letter. You cannot end the
device name with a hyphen.
• When a DHCP server is not used to assign IP addresses,
clear the [DHCP server Enable] check box, and enter a fixed
address. For details, contact your network administrator.
• If the DHCP server is enabled and the DNS server and WINS
server information is not obtained properly, clear the
[Automatic retrieval of DNS (WINS) server] check box, and
enter the appropriate server addresses.
To send image files to devices or shared folders on a different
segment of the network, you must configure a WINS server in
the network settings. Alternatively, you can incorporate a
computer on which ScanFront Service is installed onto the
network.
❏
Administrator Password
Set the password required to log in to [Administrator
setting] and the Web Menu (Administrator Mode).
CAUTION
Be careful with the administrator password. If you forget the
password, you will have to reformat the scanner, and all
registered data will be lost.
