Scan to User's Storage

Outgoing scan files are stored in the folder set in the Folder for storing scanned documents text box on the user properties panel.

Scan to User's storage settings

Select the Browse folders option so users can browse one of their cloud destinations folder on the device.

The Connect as parameter determines in which way the scan will be stored in the folder:

  • If you select the MyQ Print Server service option, the rights for access to the destination folder have to be provided to the account under which the MyQ service runs. This account will also be set as the owner of the scanned file.

    • If you select the Make the user doing the scan the owner of the file option, the user doing the scan will be set as the owner of the scanned file.

  • If you select the User doing the scan option, MyQ will expect the folder to be a shared folder on the domain account of the user doing the scan, and will use the entered password to access this folder. The user doing the scan will also be set as the owner of the scanned file. Users can then save passwords in the MyQ Web User Interface used to access secured shared folders they have available, instead of providing them manually on the Embedded Terminal during each scan. When no password is saved at the time of scan, the user receives an email to connect the folder to have the scan delivered.

  • If you select the Other user option, MyQ will expect the folder to be a shared folder on the domain account of the specified user and will use the entered username and password to access the folder. The user specified here will also be set as the owner of the scanned file.

    • If you select the Make the user doing the scan the owner of the file option, the user doing the scan will be set as the owner of the scanned file.

MyQ cannot change the owner of scanned files that are stored under the Users folder or any of its subfolders. If you want to use the Make the user doing the scan the owner of the file option, use a different folder than Users (or its subfolders) as the scan destination.
