How To Allow Ricoh Aficio Mp C2050 To Scan To Folder Windows 8

If you have already set up your C2050 to scan to other PCs, and just can't get it to work with Windows 8, there's a good chance the copier may need a firmware upgrade. Windows 8 uses a newer form of SMB that is not compatible with the older version that the copier uses.

If you need to set up scanning to a folder from scratch, this post will walk you through the process.

To set up scanning to a folder, you will first need to create a folder on your computer and share it. The steps for doing this vary greatly depending on what operating system you are using (Windows XP,Windows 8, Mac OS X 10.6, etc.).

This article will guide you through setting up a shared folder in Windows XP:

Once you have created and shared the folder, this article will show you how to link to that folder from the copier:

- Select the Folder tab, if it isn't already selected
- Select a destination from the list of programmed destinations, or enter a new one using the Manual Entry button
- Press the Start button
