Note

  • The scanned image is saved under the name that conforms to the following naming rules:

    • For single page format:

      Transmission date and time (YYYYMMDDHHMMSSMMM) + 4 digit serial page number (_nnnn) + extension (.tif/.jpg/.pdf)

      For example, when you send 10-page original in jpeg format at 15:30:15.5 on Dec. 31, 2020, the file names are from "20201231153015500_0001.jpg" to "20201231153015500_0010.jpg".

    • For multi page format:

      Transmission date and time (YYYYMMDDHHMMSSMMM) + extension (.tif/.jpg/.pdf)

      For example, when you send 10-page original in PDF format at 15:30:15.5 on Dec. 31, 2020, the file name is "20201231153015500.pdf".

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

  • The documents stored on the memory storage device can be printed from the machine's control panel. For details, see "Printing a File in a Memory Storage Device", Print.

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