DIRECTLY PRINTING A FILE IN AN FTP SERVER

Overview

If you register an FTP server, you can specify a file in the FTP server from the touch panel on the machine. This saves you the trouble of downloading the file and printing it from the computer.
When you select a password-protected PDF file, you must enter the password in the job status screen.
To register an FTP Server:
In "Setting mode (administrator)", select [Application Settings] → [Setting for Print from the MFP(FTP)]. Up to 20 FTP servers can be registered.
