Differences in Servers Used for Scanning
The following servers can be used for the scanning function. As it may be necessary to construct the server, make sure you select one that best suits your system environment.
Server | Protocol | Features |
|---|---|---|
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) | A communication protocol that transfers files and folders to an online server. | Can also be used to send data outside the company environment Can be used on both Windows and Macintosh systems Can be used stably because it is a protocol that assumes the transmission of data |
SMB (Server Message Block) | A protocol that allows shared folders present on individual computers to be accessed via a network. | No dedicated applications are required because it can be constructed using OS functions It is not demanding on the administrator because it can be used at the user level |
WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) | A protocol that allows files and folders present on the online servers to be transferred and managed. | Can also be used to send data outside the company environment Can be used as long as you have an Internet connection Allows for data present on the servers to be edited Does not depend on any one particular OS |
