1. Press [New Destination].

2. Press [File].

3. Press the Protocol drop-down list → select the desired server protocol.

The following server protocols may be used.

Confirm the system environment of the destination before sending.

System Requirements:

• If you are using WebDAV and connect to the Internet using a proxy server, the proxy server must support IPv6.

4. Specify each setting → press [OK].

If you select [Windows (SMB)] as the server protocol, you can specify the file server by pressing [Browse]. For instructions on using the Browse key, see "Using the Browse Key (Windows (SMB))."

If you select [Windows (SMB)] as the server protocol, you can specify the file server by pressing [Search Host]. For instructions on using the Search Host key, see "Using the Search Host Key (Windows (SMB))."

[Host Name]:

Press [Host Name] → enter a host name → press [OK].

A host name is a name assigned to a host computer that provides services on the Internet. A specific host name is assigned to each host computer to identify it on the Internet. In this entry box, enter the name of the file server on the network as the destination of the send job.

When [FTP] or [WebDAV] is selected as the server protocol, you can also specify a port number after the host name address by entering a colon (:) and the port number.

Example: 192.168.100.50:21000

When sending to an IPv6 host, specify the following settings for [Host Name].

[IPv6 Address]: <Port Number>

Example: [5aed:90a0:bc05:01d2:568a:2fc0:0001:12ee]:21000

Make sure to enter the same port number for the Host Name as the one specified for the FTP server or WebDAV server to which you are sending your documents.

When [WebDAV] is selected as the server protocol, the HTTP protocol is used if you specify 'HTTP://' as the scheme at the start of the host name, and the SSL + HTTP (HTTPS) protocol is used if you specify 'HTTPS://' as the scheme at the start of the host name. Specifying 'HTTPS://' as the scheme enables SSL communications between the server and the machine. However, the route between the server and the machine is only encrypted, and a server certificate validity check is not performed using a CA certificate.

[Folder Path]:

Press [Folder Path] → enter a folder path → press [OK].

A folder path is a series of characters that signify the location of the folder. Specify a folder in the file server as the destination of the send job.

[User Name]:

Press [User Name] → enter the user name → press [OK].

If [Windows (SMB)] is selected as the server protocol, enter the required user name information in the manner shown below:

• To enter the user name only:
  Example: user_name
  Maximum 20 characters

• To enter the user name and the domain name:
  Example: domain_name\user_name
  Domain name: Maximum 15 characters
  User name: Maximum 20 characters

• To enter a UPN (User Principal Name):
  Example: user_name@domain_name.com
  Maximum 128 characters

[Password]:

Press [Password] → enter a password → press [OK].

Setting the password is optional.

After pressing [OK], the password appears as asterisks (********) on the File settings screen.

• UPN (User Principal Name) can be used only if you are sending to a computer belonging to a domain operated with Active Directory.

• When sending to a file server on the Internet using WebDAV, proxy server settings may be required, depending on the environment of the destination. (See "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6.")

5. To add destination, press [Next Destination] and repeat the procedure of step 4.

6. Press [OK].
