    • Use the last values chosen by users: allows you to default to the profiles chosen by users during their previous use, which saves time when scanning uses are often the same. You then define the order in which these profiles are sorted:

      • by date of use;

      • or by profile type (predefined parameters)

    • Open default profiles bar by default: is used to propose profiles (predefined scanning parameters) to the user, so that they can choose between all the proposed profiles (whatever their previous uses). Next, define the display mode:

      • either by parameter (which is useful when scanning is used for a wide variety of purposes);

      • or by profile (set of predefined parameters).

  • Allow users to switch display modes: tick this box if you allow users to choose their own preferred display mode.

  • Scan Profiles: In this section, indicate which profiles are available to users:

    • Always Active: this information indicates whether the profile is active regardless of the settings supported by the printing device;

    • Activation: tick the box to activate the profile and make it available to users;

    • Inheritage: (activated by default when the Activation box is ticked) tick the box to make all the profile settings available to the user, who can use them to create their own profile;

    • ¨Post processing: for Kyocera WES profiles, select one of the configured post-scan treatments (seeConfigure a post-process) ;

    • Destination: choose your destination.
