  • Verification of users for access to FTP servers is done by referencing the local account database Windows 2000 Server/XP Professional/Server 2003/Vista that is used as the FTP server. Therefore, it is not possible to use the account of a domain user registered in Windows 2000 Server/XP Professional/Server 2003/Vista to send data directly from the machine to FTP servers in other domains.
  • This section describes the procedures for using the default home directory under [Default FTP Site]. To use other settings, enter the FTP site and home directory by referring to the documentation for IIS.
  • In the following procedures, items displayed on the screen for Windows XP are used; items might differ depending on your operating system.

  • If you use [Browse] to specify each item, press [Browse] after the expiration of the time specified in "Startup Time Settings." (the default setting startup time is <60 seconds>).
  • A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for [Host Name] on the control panel. Also, a maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for [File Path]. Enter each of these items on the server using no more than their allowable number of characters.
  • If Language Switch in Common Settings is set to <On>, the Host Name and File Path of the file server destination may not be displayed correctly, so you may not be able to refer to them.
  • If the language of the touch panel display differs from the computer used as a master browser, [Host name] and [File path] may not be displayed correctly, or you may not be able to browse the directories.
  • You can send data using the following formats. A DNS server is required for the latter case:
    ¥¥192.168.2.100¥share
    ¥¥host_name.organization.company.com¥share

 

 
Startup Time Settings

If you connect the machine to a switching hub, it may not be able to connect to a network even though your network settings are set correctly.

This occurs because the spanning tree process performed between switching hubs prevents them from communicating with each other immediately after the machine connects to a switching hub. In this case, use the following procedure to delay the startup of network communication.

Machine Management

The machine enables you to use any of the following software to check the status and to specify the settings on your computer.

  • Web browser (Remote UI)
  • NetSpot Device Installer (Canon utility software included in the User Software CD)

Remark
  • To set the machine to a network with the LASER CLASS 810, an optional network printer kit is required.

Machine Management Using Web Browser (Remote UI)

You can use Remote UI installed in the machine to manage it on a web browser.
For using Remote UI, see "Using the Remote UI."


Machine Management Using NetSpot Device Installer

NetSpot Device Installer is utility software for specifying the initial settings of Canon devices connected to a network. Available on the CD-ROM, NetSpot Device Installer can be accessed directly without installation, enabling network users to quickly and easily specify the initial settings of network devices.
For instructions on how to use NetSpot Device Installer, see the online help for NetSpot Device Installer.
