Importing Images Saved on a Memory Card

You can import images (including PDF files created via scanning using the Operation Panel) saved on a memory card, and save them to a computer or print them using MP Navigator EX. You can also attach them to e-mail, or edit them using an application that accompanies the machine.

When saving PDF files, you can select whether to enable keyword search, and also specify the compression type and other advanced settings.

Important:

• Do not remove or insert memory cards while they are being accessed or the Access Lamp of the machine is flashing.
  
• The machine can only detect one memory card at a time. Do not simultaneously insert multiple memory cards.
  
• When switching to another memory card of the same type or inserting another memory card in a different Card Slot, make sure that the Access Lamp of the machine is not flashing, then remove the memory card. Then, insert another memory card.
  
• The machine's Card Slot (memory card) may become inaccessible. In that case, restart the machine or turn it off and reconnect the USB cable.
  
• With network connection, check that the Card Slot is mapped as a network drive.
  
• On a network machine, memory cards will be inaccessible when you change the printer name in Set printer name using its Operation Panel.
