  • the list (short or detailled) of the available profiles (A scan profile is a sum of parameters (format, colour, orientation, type of document, etc.) defining the way in which a document is scanned. Saved in a JSON file, the scan profile can be modified using the ScanProfilesCustomizer executable.
    N.B.: in a domain, to guarantee the availability of scan profiles on all slaves servers in the event of a failure of the interserver database, it is advisable to duplicate all the scan profile JSON files from the master server to the slaves servers.
    To do this, copy the custom scan profiles folder (in which you have saved your scan profiles) from your master server to the slave server(s).);

    • Scan to Me: scans and sends the file to the user's email;

    • Scan to Mail: scans and sends the file to an email specified by the user;
