Enable Integrated Scanning

The basic workflow to enable Integrated Scanning in PaperCut Hive is:

1. Connect the “Scan to” add-on for the destination you require.
2. Add a Quick Scan.
3. Enable Integrated Scanning for individual printers.
4. On each physical printer, log out and log in again for the Quick Scans to show on the touchscreen.

You can do the first two steps of the workflow in two different ways:

• start from the Easy Print & Scan page
• start from the Add-ons page.

Starting from “Easy Print & Scan”

1. In the PaperCut Hive admin console, go to Easy Print & Scan > Integrated Scanning > Add Quick Scan.
2. Select one of the scan destinations. Note: If the destination you want isn’t connected to PaperCut Hive yet, when you click it you’ll be taken straight to that destination’s add-on tile on the Add-ons page. Connect it and follow the online steps to return to the Add Quick Scan page.
3. Configure the Quick Scan and click Save Changes.
4. Now you need to enable Integrated Scanning for individual printers; see the appropriate heading below for your brand of printers.

Starting from “Add-ons”

1. In the PaperCut Hive admin console, go to Add-ons, select the scan-to destination you want and add it to your org.
2. Go to Easy Print & Scan > Integrated Scanning > Add Quick Scan.
3. Select the same scan destination, configure it, and click Save Changes.
4. Now you need to enable Integrated Scanning for individual printers; see the appropriate heading below for your brand of printers.

Enabling Integrated Scanning for printers

Before enabling integrated scanning, please check that your printer supports this feature and is running the latest version of the printer app.

NOTE: Printer brands that aren’t compatible with Integrated Scanning don’t have the Integrated Scanning section under the Apps tab. For more information, see the specific OEM user manual.

1. Go to Printers and select a compatible printer. TIP: Look for the APP ACTIVE tag next to a printer name. The printer details panel slides out.
2. Click the Apps tab, and in the Integrated Scanning section enable the Quick Scan toggle.
   
3. Click Save Changes.

Displaying the Quick Scan actions on the printer’s touchscreen

For the Quick Scan actions to appear on the printer’s touchscreen, just log out and log back in to the printer.
