Every time I send a scan it sends it with the same file name... I am attempting to send documents to someone and every time I do it repalces the previous one because someone with infinite wisdom does not understand the word PREFIX
If you look at the settings it clearly says file name prefix
that simple little distinction suggests it is a prefix to some file not the actual file name
usually most printers, scanners, copiers name the file something like Scan with numbers denoting date and time numbers. hence the word PREFIX in the parameter field.
if its not really a prefix then you should just update the software to say FILE NAME because there is no prefix
By default just the word scan was there... all my files were called scan.pdf
i tried adding common handlers like MM-DD-YYYY and it just named the file Scan_MM-DD-YYYY.pdf
what programmer missed this obvious detail.
