OperationSteps

This machine uses an image scanner to scan characters or diagrams drawn using special markers (four colors).

The image can be printed out to the printer and be stored on a USB memory device or a computer. When con-

nected to a network, completing the network settings makes it possible to transfer image files by e-mail, save

them on the FTP server or print them on a network printer.

To use a network, refer to the separate “N-21/C-21 Series Network Manual”.

UsingUSBMemory

The content of what has been drawn on the sheet surface of the main unit can be saved in USB memory. Later,

the saved image can be read into a personal computer and made into a document of the proceedings of the

meeting, or affixed to a document.

The name of the folder on the USB memory device is “CB_Image”. Image files are stored in this folder.

By factory setting upon purchase, image files are named “PV-xxx.pdf” (PDF files), where “xxx” refers to a

3-digit number starting from 001 (ex.: PV-001.pdf).
