IInnttrroodduuccttiioonn About GlobalScan GlobalScan enables a multifunctional device (MFD) to quickly scan documents directly to e-mail. This powerful, yet easy-to-use, paper document capture and distribution system integrates seamlessly with your existing mail infrastructure to significantly boost workgroup productivity by combining e-mail functionality within an accessible copier platform. Most importantly, dramatic cost efficiencies are gained by speeding throughput of common business transactions that may otherwise require slower and more costly methods of communication, for example, dial-up fax, U.S. mail or overnight courier. GlobalScan Components The GlobalScan system consists of two primary components:
(1) GlobalScan Server software (2) GlobalScan multifunctional device software
Once installed, the GlobalScan Server acts as a digital document routing system that accepts scanned documents from multifunctional devices, creating digital files - of even the most complex documents - for electronic transmission over your network to a selected folder (Scan-to-Folder), or as an attachment to e-mail (Scan-to-Email). Working together, the GlobalScan Server and the multifunctional device make efficient and timely delivery of these electronic files to destinations around the corner or around the globe. About this Guide This Getting Started Guide is divided into two sections. Multifunctional Device Operation: Contains simple step-by-step instructions for end-user
operation of the MFD as a scanning device via intuitive touch-screen buttons that make sending an e-mail (Scan-to-Email) as easy as sending a fax. In addition, Scan-to-Folder instructions outline the simple procedure to scan hardcopy documents (in a variety of file formats) to a selected folder, for purposes of file sharing, archival, etc. If the optional OCR File Conversion Plug-in is installed, you have the added ability to convert hardcopy documents into editable formats via Scan to XLS (Excel), Scan to RTF (Word), as well as file conversion to PDF Image/Text that is searchable. If the optional RightFax Plug-in is installed, the scanned document can be transmitted to one or more fax destinations.
Appendix: Contains additional reference materials such as: software and hardware requirements and specifications, optional plug-ins to further automate document management tasks, frequently asked questions, and a glossary of terms.
Note: If running GlobalScan Ver. 1.3, please refer to the GlobalScan Ver. 1.3 User’s Guide.

Step 6: Select Scan Settings (not required) If you do not wish to program special scan settings, proceed to Step 7: Start Scan. Prior to scanning your document, it is possible to adjust scan settings through the Scan Settings button. For example, you may wish to optimize the image quality of a detailed schematic or you are scanning a double-sided original. It is also possible to manually set the paper size when scanning off the platen glass, though the default Auto Detect setting is typically used. GlobalScan also supports scanning of mixed-size originals. Thus, during the scanning process, it is possible to combine, for example, letter-, legal- and ledger-size pages in one transmission. However, scanning of half-letter (HLT) from the platen glass is not supported. 1. Press Scan Settings button. Display reads…

The GlobalScan Server supports Ricochet Coversheets and
Servers. Ricochet Coversheets are generated using a Web application that allows your users/operators to create document coversheets at remote sites and take the information scanned available to your central site. Select multifunctional devices can be easily integrated into over 150 of the top management software packages with no additional integration required. An administrator defines the document package types, its index fields and to which workflow area the documents are designated. Coversheet communicates with GlobalScan Servers via XML and barcode recognition. The users select the document package type and manually enter index data from their workstation onto a coversheet and sends it to the GlobalScan Server as an XML file. The application saves the XML file to the server and generates a barcode that identifies the file. This barcode and the remainder of the coversheet are returned to the user’s screen. The user then prints the coversheet and scans both the coversheet and related document at the scanner MFP. These images are written to the network directory. Behind the scenes, this technology recognizes the type and automatically creates additional indexing information, and releases the document to the proper workflow area. In minutes, any authorized person may access or modify the document. No hassles! No mailings! No waiting! It’s that simple! GlobalScan allows the user to scan documents and the rest is handled for them.
The iManage Scan Front End Module allows direct integration
36
with iManage document management systems. The iManage WorkSite suite is a comprehensive, integrated solution that delivers document management, collaboration, portal and business process automation on an Internet platform. iManage Inc. is the leading provider of e-business content and collaboration software. Additionally, iManage is the leading software utilized in legal application environments, where reliability, flexibility and accuracy are crucial for every users and client.
Printer Cost and Security Manager (PCSM) and System 4 are advanced network print tracking solution that enables users to monitor, measure and manage all network printing, copying and scanning activity. These solutions simplify the management of MFDs and offers flexible methods to charge printing costs incurred by users. PCSM and System 4 offer a complete solution for hardcopy Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) management, by tracking usage patterns, collecting copier data, and helping to identify the costs associated with printer, copier and scanner management. The solution architecture consists of a central accounting server and one or more print servers with low-overhead authenticated connections between them. While retaining centralized management and administration, this structure provides great scalability in network environments with thousands of users, hundreds of networks and multiple sites.
Ricoh’s Network Authentication option allows for network authentication when making copies or sending faxes. GlobalScan comes standard with network authentication for scanning.
