Setting the file name of a scanned image

Set how to name a scanned image file.

1. Click the [Detail Settings] button in [File name] of the Select output panel editing dialog.

   For Standard Scanning -> Setting the output

   For Scanning Shortcut -> Setting the output

   [File name settings] dialog is displayed.

   

   The file name is a combination of "string" and "serial number". You can add the time and date in the "string" portion of the name.
   If there is another file with the same name at the saving destination, it works as follows:

   • If the existing file name does not contain a serial number, a three-digit serial number will be added automatically and the file will be saved.

     Example: If you try to save a file as [Test.pdf] and another file with the same name already exists, the file will be saved as [Test_001.pdf].

   • If the existing file name does contain a serial number, the subsequent serial number will be automatically added and the file will be saved.

     Example: If you try to save a file as [Test_04.pdf] and another file with the same name already exists, the file will be saved as [Test_05.pdf].
