Ricoh Aficio MP 301 – PDF and Senders Name

So I always forget these 2 settings when setting up a new Richo Aficio MP 301 SPF on our network to support scan to email. This is also true for most all aficios.

First thing I forget to do is set the senders name. Seems like every time I can’t find it since I think its poorly labeled and have to search online forever! Hopefully this will save someone the headaches its always caused me.

 

1) Sender’s name not selected. Please contact your administrator

Fix: To enable Auto Specify Sender’s Name, follow this click path: User Tools > System Settings > File Transfer > Auto Specify Sender’s Name (Choose On).

 

 

 

2) How to set the send type as pdf not tiff

  1. Press the [Home] key on the top left of the control panel, and press the [Scanner] icon on the [Home] screen.

  1. Is this setting (Auto Specify Sender’s Name) anywhere in the web console? I’m setting up an MP301 remotely and they can’t send. Everything else is set.
