Canon IR 5070 - Scanning to file and email

[Guest]

I was wondering if anyone could link me to a step-by-step set of instructions that will help me set up our company's Canon IR 5070 copiers to scan to folders on individual computers as well as scan to emails. I'm absolutely new to this and have no idea where to start. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Universal Send Kit is needed


The Universal Send Kit enables you to send scanned documents via e-mail or I-fax, as well as send scanned data to be stored in file servers or User Inboxes.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that we do in fact have the universal send kit. I've been trying to find some information on setting up the email and file functions. From what I've read I'm assuming that I essentially have to connect the printer to a shared folder on a user's computer. I'm not exactly sure how to set up the SMB settings required. As for the email, I think I have to create an email address exclusively for the copier from which it will send the scanned documents to an email address specified when scanning. I am assuming that I can just set it up with a new gmail account.

I'm sure I can figure out the email part of this, but I am only familiar with the basics of networking. The configurations needed to set the copier up with each computer completely eludes me lol.

Thanks!

Configuring other mail clients

• Follow the instructions below to set up POP access in most POP clients.
• Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain name.

We offer instructions for configuring some clients not in our supported client list. If you encounter difficulties, we suggest contacting your mail client's customer support department -- we're unable to provide assistance for clients not in our supported POP client list.
Non-supported clients:
While configuration instructions are available, we're currently unable to provide support for these clients.

• Entourage 2004
  Entourage X
  Eudora 5.1 (and higher) (Light Mode)
  Eudora 5.1 (and higher) (Sponsored & Paid Mode)
  Eudora for Macs
  Foxmail 5.0
  Mozilla 1.7
  Netscape Mail 4.5, 4.6, or 4.7
  Netscape Mail 6.2
  Netscape Mail 7.x
  SnapperMail
  The Bat! v3.62 Professional Edition

Standard instructions:

1. Enable POP in Gmail. Don't forget to click Save Changes when you're done.
2. Configure your client to match the settings below: Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL: pop.gmail.com
   Use SSL: Yes
   Port: 995 Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
   Use Authentication: Yes
   Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
   Port: 465 or 587 Account Name: your full email address (including @gmail.com or @your_domain.com) Email Address: your email address (username@gmail.com or username@your_domain.com) Password: your Gmail password Unless you're using recent mode to download mail to multiple clients, make sure you've opted not to leave messages on the server. Your Gmail settings determine whether or not messages stay on the server, so this setting in your client won't affect how Gmail handles your mail.
   Please note that if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you won't be able to send mail through your client using your Gmail address.
   Also, if you're having trouble sending mail but you've confirmed that encyrption is active for SMTP in your mail client, try to configure your SMTP server on a different port: 465 or 587.
3. You're now ready to use POP with your Gmail address.
