CHAPTER 6 DOCUMENT FILING This chapter provides detailed explanations of the procedures for using the document filing function. The document filing function allows you to save the document data of a copy or fax job, or the data of a print job, as a file on the machine's hard drive.
DOCUMENT FILING This section provides information that you should know before using the document filing function, including an overview of document filing, the features and functions of document filing, and points to keep in mind when using document filing. OVERVIEW The document filing function allows you to save the document image of a copy or image send job, or the data of a print job, as a file on the machine's hard drive.
USES OF DOCUMENT FILING Quickly using a file Example: You prepared handouts consisting of numerous pages for a meeting, however, another handout is needed for a newly added participant. The handout was not saved using document filing Ratio and special mode settings must be reselected.
BEFORE USING DOCUMENT FILING This section provides information that you should know before using the document filing function. Folders Three types of folders are used to store files by document filing. Quick File Folder Documents scanned using the [Quick File] key are stored in this folder. A user name and file name are automatically assigned to each job.

Page 650
Automatic deletion of files You can have document filing data in specified folders automatically deleted at regular intervals by specifying the folders and the time. Periodic deletion of files stored in the machine helps to prevent the leaking of sensitive information and frees space on the hard drive.
Do not store sensitive documents or documents that you do not want to be used by others. • Except in cases provided for by law, SHARP Corporation bears no responsibility for any damages that result from the leaking of sensitive information due to manipulation by a third party of any data saved using the Quick File function or File function, or incorrect operation of the Quick File function or File function by the operator that saves the data.
USING DOCUMENT FILING IN EACH MODE In copy or image send mode, the original can be saved as a file on the hard drive at the same time it is copied or transmitted. In addition, Scan to HDD can be used to save the scanned data of an original to the hard drive without copying or transmitting the data.
