To set up scan to email functionality on a Ricoh photocopier, you can follow these general steps:
Ensure that your Ricoh photocopier is connected to the network and has access to the internet.
Obtain the necessary email server settings from your email provider or IT department. You will need the SMTP server address, port number, and authentication details (username and password).
On the Ricoh photocopier’s control panel, navigate to the settings menu. The exact steps may vary depending on the model and interface of your Ricoh device.
Look for the “Scan Settings” or “Scan to Email” section in the menu options.
Enter the SMTP server address and port number provided by your email provider.
Enable authentication and enter the username and password for the email account you want to use for scanning.
Configure additional settings as needed, such as scan resolution, file format, and destination folder.
Save the settings and exit the menu.
Place your documents in the document feeder or on the scanner glass, depending on your Ricoh photocopier model.
On the control panel, select the “Scan” or “Scan to Email” option.
Follow the prompts to specify the scan settings, such as file format and destination email address.
Start the scanning process, and the scanned document will be converted into a digital file and sent as an email attachment to the specified email address.
