You can attach a scanned image to
an email as a file attachment.
Note: Your
email app and account settings should be configured before
scanning. You must install a MAPI-type email program such as
Outlook Express, Entourage, or Mac Mail. Attach to Email only
supports 32-bit MAPI-compatible mail apps. Web-based email services
such as Gmail are not supported. If you see an error message, your
email app may not be compatible and you will need to save the scans
and manually attach the file to an email.
- Make sure your originals are scanned and reviewed. See the link at the end of this section.
- In the Select Action window, click Attach to Email. You see a screen like this:
- Change the settings as
follows:
- The document type and scan date for the file name are automatically detected. You can change them as necessary.
- You can save the scanned image in a variety of formats.
- If you also want to save a copy of the scanned image to your computer, make sure the checkbox is selected and select the folder on your computer in which to save the file.
- Click Attach to E-mail. Your email program opens with the file attached to a new email.
