NOTE
Only scanners on the same subnet (network with the same network ID) as your computer are displayed in the list.

To select the scanner using the IP address or host name

Click [Address].

Enter the IP address or host name → click [OK].

NOTE
It is possible to specify an IP address or host name outside the subnet. For a scanner connected to a network by IPv4, enter the IP address as follows: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (XXX is a decimal number from "0" to "255." Characters that can be used are the numbers "0" to "9" and periods (.).) For a scanner connected to a network by IPv6, enter the IP address as follows (only for Color Network ScanGear): XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX (XXXX is a hexadecimal number. Characters that can be used are the numbers "0" to "9," the letters "a" to "f" and "A" to "F," and colons (:).) Example: 3ae3:90a0:bd05:01d2:288a:1fc0:0001:10ee If the number within a segment begins with a zero (0), you can omit the zero (0) at the beginning. Example: f0f0:0001:0020:0300:1000:0100:0020:0003=f0f0:1:20:300:1000:100:20:3 If there are continuous segments consisting of zeros (0), these can be replaced by a double colon (::). However, only one continuous group of segments can be omitted. Example 1: 1234:4567:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:9abc = 1234:4567::9abc Example 2: 1234:4567:0000:0000:f1f2:0000:0000:9abc = 1234:4567::f1f2:0:0:9abc You can specify the host name by entering it in the form "host name" only, or in the form "host name+sub-domain name+domain name." An example of host name only is: Server1234 An example of host name+sub-domain name+domain name is: Server1234.canon.com For details on how to verify the IP address or host name you have set, refer to the manual provided with the corresponding product.
