Your IMAGISTICS IM2520 copier can transmit with the TCP/IP protocol on a LAN, which requires the LAN cable to be connected. Connect to the LAN by using a LAN cable (cable for Fast Ethernet 100BASE-TX).

To connect the LAN cable, insert one plug on the LAN cable into the connector (marked LAN) at the back of the machine, and then insert the other plug into the hub.

Tips:

• The connector is at the back of the machine.

• The LAN cable should be a cable for Fast Ethernet 100BASE-TX (Category 5).

• The LAN cable is not included as an accessory.

Follow these steps to install the IP Scanner software for your IMAGISTICS IM2520 on Windows Me, 98/95, XP, 2000, and NT4.0.

• The transmitted image from the IMAGISTICS IM2520 is received by the Image Receiver application and saved by IP Scanner as an image file in the “My Images” folder.

• If the “Save folder as a key” check box in the main window was selected, a new folder with the same name as the scanner button is created, and the image file is saved in that folder. This setting is available only if the document is scanned with a scanner function.

• When using IP Scanner, be sure that Image Receiver is running. While Image Receiver is running, its icon appears in the Windows taskbar. Normally, Image Receiver starts up automatically when Windows starts up. If it has not started, start it up by navigating to “Start” → “Programs” → “IP Scanner” → “Image Receiver”.

• When Image Receiver begins to receive image data, the icon in the Windows taskbar flashes.

Note: With IP Scanner, JBIG-encoded TIFF files cannot be viewed.

Using a dial-up router:

When using IP Scanner, be sure that the IP address of the IMAGISTICS IM2520 main device is correctly specified. If an incorrect IP address is specified in an environment where a dial-up router is used, the dial-up router may unnecessarily be dialed up. In addition, depending on the network environment of the computer, the dial-up router may be unnecessarily dialed up, regardless of whether the correct IP address was specified.

Using a modem or terminal adapter:

If a computer with a built-in modem (or a computer connected to a terminal adapter) is used, they may be used to dial up. If this occurs, select either “Never dial a connection” or “Dial whenever a network connection is not present” in the “Dial-up settings” group box on the Connections tab of the Internet Properties dialog box. For details, refer to the instruction manual for the operating system.

The Sort Settings dialog box allows you to automatically organize scanned documents and received faxes into folders. Here are the available options for your IMAGISTICS IM2520:

The Divided Settings feature allows you to scan a batch of documents in a single operation and have them saved as separate files. This is useful for separating documents with interleaves or scanning each page as an individual file.

The Notify Settings dialog box allows you to specify which computers on the network should be notified when a scanned image is saved to a particular folder.

Follow these steps to program a one-touch scanner button on your IMAGISTICS IM2520 that will send scanned documents directly to your computer:

1. On the computer, start up IP Scanner by navigating to: “Start” → “Programs” → “IP Scanner” → “IP Scanner”.

2. If prompted, type in the IP address of the IMAGISTICS IM2520 main device, and then click the [OK] button. (If the IP address has been set previously, this step is not required.)

3. The main IP Scanner window appears. Check that Image Receiver has started up. Normally, it starts automatically with Windows. If not, start it manually: “Start” → “Programs” → “IP Scanner” → “Image Receiver”.

4. In the main window, click the [Scanner Key Registration] button.

5. The Scanner Settings dialog box appears. In the “Scanner Key Name” box, type in the name you want to appear on the button on the copier’s screen.

6. Specify the settings for “Scan Area”, “Quality”, “File Format”, etc., and then click the [Scanner Key Registration] button within this dialog box.

7. A confirmation dialog box appears. Click the [OK] button.

The scanner button on the IMAGISTICS IM2520 copier is now programmed.

Once a scanner button has been programmed for your computer, follow these steps to scan from the IMAGISTICS IM2520:

1. Position the document(s) to be scanned on the glass or in the automatic document feeder.

2. Press the [Extra Scan] key on the copier’s control panel.

3. Touch the scanner button on the screen that corresponds to your computer (the one you programmed earlier).

4. Press the [Start] key.

The document will be scanned and sent to the specified folder on your computer.

Note:

• Only one scanner button can be programmed from a single computer (same IP address).

• A maximum of six scanner buttons on a copier can be programmed.

• If the maximum number of scanner buttons is reached, they can be deleted from the touch panel by selecting the button and touching [Del.].

The image transmitted from the IMAGISTICS IM2520 is received by the Image Receiver application and saved by IP Scanner as an image file (TIFF or PDF) in the “My Images” folder (or a custom folder if configured).

To view the scanned image:

In the main IP Scanner window, navigate to the folder where the file was saved. Select the image file that you wish to view, and then double-click it. The default software on your computer corresponding to the TIFF or PDF file format will start up and display the image.

Tips:

• If the “Save folder as a key” check box was selected during programming, a new folder with the same name as the scanner button is created, and the image file is saved in that folder.

• You can click the [Thumbnails] button in the IP Scanner window to display a list of thumbnails for all TIFF and PDF files in the opened folder. Click a thumbnail to display the file.

• If the “Show dialogue after received” setting is selected, the file can be displayed by selecting [Details]-[Open] in the dialog box that appears after the scan is received.
