    If you are scanning only one original, press the [Sharp] key to send the scan file.

    If you are scanning multiple originals, place them on the machine, and then press the [Start] key.

    Repeat this step until all originals are scanned, and then press the [Sharp] key.

  • The amount of time required to save files to a USB flash memory device will vary according to the device's specifications.

  • The documents stored on the memory storage device cannot be sent from the machine's control panel.

  • You cannot specify where the data is saved. Files are saved in the root directory of the memory storage device.

  • If the memory storage device is partitioned, files are saved on the first partition.

  • You cannot configure file information such as [User Name], [File Name], and [Password].

  • The amount of free space on the memory device is displayed. Note that if the amount of free space exceeds 100 GB, "99999.9 MB" will be displayed.

  • To cancel writing, press the [Clear/Stop] key. If files are being written when writing is cancelled, any partially written files are deleted. Only complete files are stored on the memory storage device.
