How to update passwords and add accounts to the scanner

When employees start, they have a folder created in P:\04 Scans. This folder is the recipient of items scanned from the copier. Below are instructions for updating passwords and adding new accounts on both the Cannon MFP devices (East and West). For the plotter – contact IT.

  1. Tap the Scan and Send button.




  2. Tap the One-Touch button.




  3. Tap the Register button, this gets you into the Register One-Touch Menu.




  4. New Accounts: For new accounts; find an available number and tap Register/Edit. (If you don’t select a number, the Register/Edit button is grayed out.)




  5. Existing Accounts: For existing accounts, tap your name to select, then tap the Register/Edit button.




  6. New Accounts: For new accounts, enter the information seen below:

    Name: your name
    One-touch Button Name: your name
