This printer supports digital filing:
Digital Sending Standard Features | Scan-to E-mail; Scan to network folder; scan to SharePoint; Scan to thumb drive |
That said, there are a couple of options - which you use depends how you want to go about accomplishing the task.
Reminder: Both of these options require that Web Services be running and actually working - even having set up everything exactly right won't help if the cloud servers (not in your control) are not working on the other end.
Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar
Tab Web Services > Web Services Settings > Summary
Set up "Scan to Email" using the Embedded Web Server (EWS)
Not particularly difficult but does require setup - includes the initial setup, edit, and testing.
Requires an installed email client program on the computer (Outlook Thunderbird, for example)
Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar
Tab Scan > Scan to Email > Settings
Example
EWS_8740_Scan-to-Email_Setup_7A
