Easy Scan

Scanning by a single touch. After the user taps this action, the page is immediately scanned to a predefined destination. You can define multiple destinations where the scanned document is sent to, and set scan parameters in MyQ.

If enabled on the server, users can change their scan settings from the terminal screen.

You can also create new custom parameters to be used in the scan metadata, or as parts of file names, addresses, subjects and email bodies, and as paths to folders, passwords to folders etc. You can find further details in Create custom parameters on the MyQ Print Server guide.

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) can be used with Easy Scan, by creating OCR profiles and enabling users to select them on the embedded terminal. You can find further details in OCR on the MyQ Print Server guide. 

Filter Storage Locations

When using Easy Scan to scan to a storage location, a filter option is available to assist in locating files or folders. The filter only returns results for the current folder level that is selected, the contents of parent or child folders will not be queried. This feature is available when using Print Server 10.2 patch 23+.
