Not possible I'm afraid. Scan to FTP or email only.

you can but there are things that have to be change in mac software and on copiermac scan folder setup.pdf. if your customer doesn't approve turning these functions to a false state will not be able to scan to folder and will need to try one of the other suggestions. It is a security risk that computer is no longer verifying sigining in.

mac has turn off ftp so again will have to go in software and turn on. then use some type of ftp software like filezilla only a suggestion. I would strongly suggested get a mac IT person to help you with this problem for scan to folder setup or ftp setup. If you don't know what you are doing can miss up a computer.

Best way for scan in a mac environment is scan to email, just set up a gmail account & use that.

The downside to that is, a lot of Law Firms and Medical places won't ALLOW scan to email. Privacy regulations have made everyone paranoid that some patient or customer's personal information can be sent to someone Hotmail account, with no real way to track who sent it. The only way I've been able to get around that is to require the customer to enter their SMTP login info at the copier when scanning to email... but to most, that's a pain in the neck they'd rather not deal with.

Scan to FTP is the only option since OS X 10.6, unless the customer installs SAMBA on their computer, or creating an SMB folder on a Windows Server in their office, and just giving them a link to that folder on their Mac desktop.

i use a canon tool, that creates a new user called "CANON", and enables the ftp service on mac....thats why the ftp sends the file only to the home directory, if you create a folder inside the home directory it doesn't work, thats why the tool creates a separate user.

It is very possible to setup scan to folder on a Mac for an MP301, but it is a giant pain in the ass and not worth it. Just use scan to email instead.
