How to set default scan file type to pdf on MFP M277

[BosseAGI]

Whenever I am scanning a document on my printer I have to change the default file type from JPG to PDF.

Since 98% of my scanning is towards PDF files it is getting on my nerves because of the clumsy way I have to change the file type for EVERY single page I scan!

I have tried to find some way to reconfigure the printer to use PDF instead but failed to find one.

Please suggest how to do this!

Preferably on the scanner console itself...

Found it!

Turns out that when making a scan where the scan file type needs to be changed one goes into a "Setup" submenu of the scanning command screen.

The file type is high on the list of items and is changed there, but when this is done one can scroll the menu down and way in the bottom is an entry to set the new selection as the default!

So the reason I did not find it before is that this is not available in any general configuration menu, just when one is in the process of doing a scan and wants to change something....

Not the most natural thing to me.

Anyway, now the printer is set to scan to PDF as default like I wanted.
