Adding SMB Network Destinations to Your Original (1st and 2nd Gen) or Pro Raven Scanner

With your Original or Pro Raven Scanner, scanned data can be stored to a shared folder (SMB folder) on a connected Windows PC, Mac or Network Attached Storage (NAS) on the same local area network (LAN) as your scanner. From a computer connected to the network, you can access the shared folder and the saved scan documents. Note that hidden folder shares are not supported at this time.

Adding a Network Destination

1. From the main scanner home screen, tap the "Destination" tile to open the destination menu
2. In the top left corner, tap the "+ Add" button
3. From the + Add menu, choose "Network"
4. NETWORK SETTINGS screen will now appear.
   1. Enter a DESTINATION NAME (the name entered here will be displayed on your Destination Menu).
   2. Locate and enter the IP ADDRESS or FULLY QUALIFIED DOMAIN NAME (FQDN) for your SMB share.
   3. Type the FOLDER NAME of the folder on your SMB share. (Please note:  if you type <folder name>/<child folder name> it will upload into the child folder…. However, if you just type in <child folder name> then it will upload into that folder as well. Additionally, folders containing "/" will not be accepted).
   4. USERNAME is the username that the user is set up for your SMB share (if required).
   5. PASSWORD is the users password that is used to log in to your SMB share (if required).
5. Click TEST CONNECTION to verify connection (Test Connection will upload a temporary file to verify setup is complete).
6. Press SAVE to finalize your changes.
