Scanning and Saving to a Computer
The sequence of "scanning an original and saving it to a computer" can only be done when scanning from the machine. Scan while specifying what computer originals will be saved to; whether to scan originals in color or black and white; whether to save originals as PDFs or JPEGs; and other settings. Incidentally, if you want to specify a computer connected to the network as the destination, you must register the machine with the computer in advance (
Preparing to Use the Machine as a Scanner).

About the save destination folder
By default, the scanned data is saved to the My Documents folder. A subfolder named with the scanning date is created, and the data is saved to that folder.
You can change the save destination from the WG Scan Utility. For more information, click [Instructions] on WG Scan Utility.
