18 Scanning from scanner buttons Back to TOC
Supported e-mail programs
Supported e-mail programs allow the scanner to scan an item as a file
and attach it to a new e-mail message. If a scanned image
automatically appears as a file attachment in a new e-mail message,
your e-mail program is supported.
If you are using an unsupported e-mail program, such as a Web-based
program like Microsoft Hotmail
®
, the scanner cannot scan items
directly into an e-mail message. The scanner scans the item but then
prompts you to save it as a file. After saving the image as a file, open
an e-mail message and attach the file as you normally do.
To be prompted to save the file, make sure that E-mail file is selected
in the button options. Otherwise, you receive an error message when
you press E-
MAIL at the scanner.
See "Changing settings for buttons" on page 25 to check or change
which e-mail program is set as the default, or to set E-mail file as the
default.
