Set up a scan watch folder
- Create a folder on the DWS server (in this example, the name of this machine is DWSServer).
- Share this folder over SMB ( ).
- Give it a known share name. In this example, use EpsonScans in C:\ root.
- Select a user with Full Control permissions. The MFP needs to have Server Message Block (SMB) access to this folder. In this example, use SCU for user.
- Set a password.
- Go to DRS, select the Devices tab.
- In the SCAN DESTINATION field enter fully qualified share name //DWSServer/EpsonScans.
- In the SCAN DESTINATION - USER field, enter <domain>\SCU.
- In the SCAN DESTINATION - PASSWORD field, enter the password you set in the previous step.
- In the DWS LOCAL SCAN PATH field, enter the local path to the share, that is C:\EpsonScans.
- Ensure that DWS user has Full Control in file system permissions.
- Verify access to SMB share as some security applications may block SMB traffic
