HP Designjet T1100 and T1120 MFP Series Products - Scan To and Access a Network Folder

By default, your system’s folder browse dialogs will display only local drives and folders. This topic explains how you can add network locations to the system. Once added, you can use a network location and underlying folders as destinations for scan-to-file (Scan tab) jobs and access them with the file manager (Folder button).

1. Your system must be connected to the network.
2. Press the folder button to open the file manager dialog.
3. Press the Network button.
4. Press the Add Network Connection button to open the dialog shown below. Contact your network administrator if you need information about one or more of the dialogs settings as described in the next steps.
   
5. Remote name – enter the full path name to the remote machine or folder on the network. This can be a server name, an IP address or any remote name that is recognized by the network and identifies a valid connection/location.
6. User name – the login user name for the remote server/ machine.
7. Password - the login password for the remote server/ machine.
8. Label – this is what your HP Designjet scanner system will display in its browse dialogs. Enter a name that will help you identify the remote destination.

note:

You can add as many network connections as you need. However, your network connection definitions will automatically be deleted when you shut down the panel PC.

note:

You can manually remove network connections through the Folder button, Network, Remove Network Connection.
