If all your scan destination folders are located on one PC/Server, or multiple PC’s that will use the same credentials for SMB authentication, there is an option to manage that Username & Password from ONE location. This eliminates the need to enter it every time you configure a new destination, and only one spot to correct for future password changes.
Authentication Credentials #
Typically, authentication credentials are entered in the Address Book here for EVERY Scan to Folder address book entry you create.
If only ONE set of credentials is being used for all destinations, it is possible to manage those credentials from one location.
