I start with Scanner -> E-mail. I add a subject line like "Scan from KM-4050", hit submit, and then click the link to setup SMTP. (The other way to get to SMTP settings is through Advanced -> SMTP -> General)
- Turn SMTP Protocol On.
- SMTP Port is usually fine at 25. I use 587 for ours to avoid certain ISPs blocking port 25.
- Enter in the server hostname.
- Server Timeout is usually ok at 10 seconds, unless the email server is running on a 10-year-old computer in Elbonia.
Next is authentication. Some local servers don't need it, but mine does.
- Turn Authentication Protocol On.
- Change Authenticate As to Other.
- Type in the email username and password. Good luck getting this right. This is what to change for Error 1102.
Other Stuff
- Change the E-mail Size Limit to 0 to disable it.
- Change the sender E-mail address to something, such as the e-mail associated with the login username you just entered. This is the email that will get all of the No User Found emails and other bouncebacks and replies to scans with sensitive business information.
- Hit submit
- Once it reloads, hit test
- Pray that it works
You'll also need to try scanning something, as the Test button on that setup page only connects to the email server and doesn't actually try sending an email, which can have its own problems.
All the Scan Error numbers are explained in the Basic Operation guide in the Troubleshooting section. If you get a 1101, 2101-2203, or 3101, double check the email server hostname as well as the DNS settings in Advanced -> TCP/IP -> General.
On the Falcon 3, under Scanner -> Defaults, I change the default DPI from 200 to 300. Some reports I scan come out horribly on 200 dpi.
Adding destinations is hidden under Basic -> Address Book. Just click Add Contact, enter in a Name and an email address, then hit Submit.
I think I overcomplicated this
