File Name

You can set a file name to use when sending a document via e-mail, I-fax, or a file server.
1.
Press [Scan and Send].
2.
Specify the destination → press [Options] → [File Name].
3.
Press [File Name].
4.
Enter a file name → press [OK] → [OK].
If you are sending to an e-mail address or file server, specify [Auto(OCR)] as necessary.
If you set PDF (OCR) or XPS (OCR) as the file format, you can set [Auto (OCR)] to 'On' to automatically
extract a text string that appears to be the title from the beginning of the document, for use as its file name. You can set the number of characters that are extracted for [Auto(OCR)] in <Num. of Char. for File Name Setting> in OCR (Text Searchable) Settings. (See "Settings for Creating Searchable PDF.")
IMPORTANT
Depending on the layout of the document, the intended text string may not be set as the file name.
Characters such as backslashes (\), slashes (/), colons (:), asterisks (*), question marks (?), double quotation marks ("), open angle brackets (<), close angle brackets (>), and vertical bars (|) are invalid when sending a file and will not be extracted.
If you have already entered a document name, the extracted text is appended to the end of the filename.Characters over the character limit will be cut off.
You cannot set the encrypted PDF mode and [Auto(OCR)] at the same time.
NOTE
When you send documents via e-mail or I-fax, each page is sent as a separate image attached to an e-mail message or a separate TIFF image attached to an I-fax. The file extension for the document matches the file format that you select for sending. The file name is assigned as follows:
If you set the file name:
