About the digital  
sender  
1
Introduction  
The HP 9100C Digital Sender can be directly connected to TCP/IP  
networks. It converts black-and-white and color documents, drawings,  
and photographs into an electronic form and distributes them directly  
to several kinds of destinations:  
Internet e-mail addresses  
fax numbers (if one of the supported LAN fax products is installed  
on your network)  
personal computers (PCs)  
programs  
printers  
HP JetSend-enabled devices  
The unit includes a flatbed scanner as well as an automatic document  
feeder (ADF) that can accept up to 50 pages.  
A companion program called the HP Address Book Manager (ABM)  
lets users create their own address books of e-mail address and fax  
destinations, and combine e-mail addresses into private distribution  
lists. The destinations and distribution lists can then be selected at  
the digital sender control panel. The administrator also has the ability  
to create public destinations and e-mail distribution lists and make  
them available to all users.  
Users have the ability to send documents directly from the digital  
sender to specified programs on their computers. They can then print  
the documents, send them as e-mail attachments, or use included  
software to annotate, organize, and distribute them.  
EN  
Introduction 7  
     
The HP 9100C Digital Sender supports LDAP (Lightweight Directory  
Access Protocol), which allows you to find and use e-mail addresses  
located on directory servers located elsewhere on a network (such as  
the Internet) over a TCP/IP connection. See the HP digital sender  
website for a list of global e-mail address books:  
http://www.digitalsender.hp.com  
Installing the digital sender is simply a matter of connecting it to your  
network, configuring network and distribution parameters, and  
installing the software from the compact disc that comes with the  
digital sender. The digital sender operates as a standalone unit on the  
network and does not require network privileges to administer.  
The HP JetDirect print server that comes installed in the digital  
sender handles all protocol support for TCP/IP and SMTP  
automatically.  
The HP 9100C Digital Sender is fully compatible with the LAN fax  
capabilities found in the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner. When you  
install the digital sender, you do not need to upgrade your LAN fax  
product.

14 Chapter 1 - About the digital sender  
EN  
     
Distribution services  
The digital sender is capable of distributing documents to the  
following types of destinations:  
Internet e-mail addresses  
fax phone numbers  
computers on the network  
printers on the network (for convenience copying)  
HP JetSend-enabled devices on the network  
third-party programs installed in computers on the network  
E-mail destinations  
The digital sender can send MIME-compliant e-mail messages to  
Internet addresses. It uses SMTP-MIME to deliver these messages.  
SMTP is independent of the network operating system on which your  
e-mail server is running. The e-mail service is also compatible with  
the DSN (Delivery Status Notification) standard.  
ESMTP (Extended SMTP) is used if your server supports it. This  
capability is automatically detected and no specific configuration  
steps are necessary.  
The document that you scan at the digital sender becomes an  
attachment to your e-mail message. Portable Document Format  
(.pdf) is the file format most often used for the attachments, which  
gives recipients the ability to both view and print them. You can obtain  
a free copy of the Adobe® Acrobat® Reader from the Adobe Systems  
Incorporated website (http://www.adobe.com). Or, you can install the  
Reader program on your network with the digital sender setup  
program.  
Users can specify e-mail destinations at the control panel in several  
ways:  
select e-mail addresses from public or private address books  
already loaded in the digital sender  
use a special search feature to select e-mail addresses from an  
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server, if one has  
been configured for use by the administrator  
type e-mail addresses manually  
EN  
Features 15  
           
Fax destinations  
Users can send faxes directly from the digital sender. They have the  
ability to select destinations from a Public Fax address book already  
loaded in the digital sender, or type them at the control panel. The  
same document can be sent to multiple fax numbers.  
To support this service, the digital sender comes with software for a  
number of third-party LAN fax products. This software runs on  
Windows NT computers only.  
Visit the HP digital sender website (http://www.digitalsender.hp.com)  
for a list of the LAN fax products that are currently supported.  
Computer destinations  
Users can send documents from the digital sender directly to a  
computer on the network. This process is accomplished through  
peer-to-peer transmission. The addresses of destination computers  
are predefined in registered user profiles. Users can choose the  
format for the documents and the program on their computer that is  
used to view and work with them.  
Printer destinations  
You can enable convenience copying by setting up one or more  
printers on the network for use with the digital sender. The printers  
you designate must be connected to the network by means of  
HP JetDirect print servers.  
Only one destination can be selected per job. Collated copying is not  
supported.  
Color printing is supported for the HP Color LaserJet 4500 printer.  
HP JetSend destinations  
HP JetSend is a communications technology built into printer and  
scanner firmware and computer software. HP JetSend-enabled  
devices can connect, talkto each other, and exchange information  
directly through the network. The capability is independent of servers  
and programs, and uses simple addressing such as TCP/IP  
addresses and host names.  
16 Chapter 1 - About the digital sender  
EN  
       
The digital sender is an HP JetSend-enabled device. You can use it  
to send documents to the following types of devices:  
printers on your company intranet that are HP JetSend-enabled  
computers with HP JetSend for Windows software installed (you  
can download a free copy of the HP JetSend for Windows  
software for Windows NT or 95 from the HP JetSend website at  
http://www.jetsend.hp.com)  
Both types of devices must have a valid TCP/IP address.  
Third-party programs installed on computers on the  
network  
You can customize the HP 9100C Digital Sender to support third-  
party programs being used in your office. Users then have the ability  
to distribute documents from the digital sender directly to these  
programs.  
EN  
Features 17  
   
Security  
The HP 9100C Digital Sender operates as a standalone unit on the  
network. You administer each digital sender independently of any  
other device on the network under a password that applies only to  
that digital sender.  
The digital sender accepts three types of users:  
registered users  
Individuals who have been set up to use the digital sender by  
means of a user profile. You must be a registered user to use the  
HP Address Book Manager. Only registered users have private  
address books that are accessible at the digital sender.  
guest users  
Individuals who are not registered users and who do not have  
user profiles. Guest users can use the digital sender and all  
public address books. However, they cannot see or use private  
address books, nor can they use the ABM. The administrator can  
entirely disable guest user access.  
administrator for the digital sender  
The individual (referred to as the administratorin this guide)  
who performs administrator activities for the digital sender.  
Because the digital sender is a standalone unit on the network,  
these activities can be performed independently of any other  
network activity. Administrator privileges for the digital sender do  
not require network privileges. Activities include such things as  
establishing the level of security for the digital sender and  
maintaining the public address books. The administrator has  
access to all private address books, as well as the activity log for  
each user.  
The administrator controls digital sender security in several ways:  
By determining who can use the digital sender (registered users  
and guest users, or only registered users).  
By requiring passwords. Passwords are available at two levels:  
administrator and registered users. Both are optional. Passwords  
control what each type of user can see and do at the digital  
sender.  
By determining whether new or changed user profiles require  
administrator validation before they take effect. If validation is  
required, users do not have access to certain information at the  
digital sender until their profile has been authorized by the  
administrator.

Introduction  
Installing and configuring the HP 9100C Digital Sender for the first  
time consists of:  
physically installing the unit  
configuring network and security parameters  
installing the software  
configuring users  
setting up public e-mail and fax destinations  
designating the printers that can be used with the digital sender  
Each HP 9100C Digital Sender exists on the network independently  
of any other digital sender. However, once you have configured one  
digital sender, you can replicate that configuration for any other digital  
sender on the same network.  
At any time after initial configuration, you can change what you have  
set up. Depending on what you want to do, you use one of the  
following methods (explained in chapter 3 on monitoring and  
maintaining the digital sender).

The configuration process  
Fast-track configuration  
After you have physically installed the digital sender, you only need to  
configure a few parameters at the control panel to begin using the  
digital sender right away. After you have configured these fast-track”  
parameters, you will be able to:  
discover the digital sender over the network  
send e-mail messages  
use e-mail addresses located on an LDAP server of your  
choosing  
send documents to HP JetSend-enabled devices on your network  
Extended and optional functionality  
Once you have established the digital sender on the network and  
enabled basic functionality, you can extend functionality for the  
services you wish to implement. You can also configure optional  
parameters for the services you have already set up.  
In general, the extended and optional features consist of the  
following:  
security preferences  
DNS and WINS name resolution  
ability to send faxes from the digital sender  
ability to send documents from the digital sender to other  
computers on your network  
ability to send documents from the digital sender to printers on  
your network  
parameters you can configure for the digital sender and where you  
configure them.  
32 Chapter 2 - Installing and configuring  
EN  
         
Assigning an IP address to the digital sender  
The easiest and recommended method for assigning an IP address to  
the digital sender is by entering it directly at the control panel. Several  
alternate methods exist:  
assign using the HP JetAdmin software  
You can use the HP JetAdmin software at your computer to  
assign or change the IP address for the digital sender.  
assign using a DHCP or BOOTP server  
You might be more familiar with assigning IP addresses to  
network devices from a DHCP or BOOTP server. In this scenario,  
you prepare the device attached to the network, make an entry for  
it on the DHCP or BOOTP server, and then turn the device on.  
The HP JetDirect print server inside the HP 9100C Digital Sender  
picks up its IP information from the DHCP or BOOTP server.  
Note  
You can let the digital sender time out to a default IP address. In fact,  
this happens automatically if you do not manually assign an IP address  
at the control panel within the timeout period of 2 minutes.  
The default IP address is not a valid address. You must change the  
address to one of your own assignment. You can use the control panel  
or the HP JetAdmin software to do this at any time.  
Preparing for configuration  
Before you start configuring the HP 9100C Digital Sender for the first  
time, take a few minutes to prepare so that you can complete the  
steps without interruption. Use the checklist on the following page.  
EN  
The configuration process 33

The setup program installs all the software that is necessary to use  
the digital sender (see the table on the next page).  
The software needed by client computers is distributed to users in a  
later step, which either you or users can do (see Distribute the client  
During the setup program, you decide how you want to later distribute  
the client software to user computers:  
installation compact disc  
Users can install client software using the same setup program  
on the installation compact disc that is used in this step.  
shared network folder or website  
If you choose one of these options, the setup program gives you  
the opportunity to place the files where you want.  
If the setup program finds that a particular software component has  
already been installed, it issues a message asking if you want to  
overwrite the existing file(s) and continue. When you overwrite a  
component, the setup program installs the new version in the same  
folderyou do not have the opportunity to change the location. This  
means that the first person who installs the software sets the target  
folder for all later installations.  
There are special considerations if you are installing the software on a  
Windows NT computer and plan to share it with both an HP 9100C  
Digital Sender and an HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner. See

Internet Naming Service (WINS) at the same time. When you  
enable both, the digital sender attempts to resolve network  
names using WINS first, and then DNS.  
For DNS. Type the Default search domain. In the DNS  
Server Search Order field, you can specify up to five DNS  
servers for use in resolving DNS names. At least one DNS  
server is required if you enable DNS. Enter each as an IP  
address. To resolve network names, the digital sender  
contacts DNS servers in the order you specify in the list.  
The digital sender uses the Default search domain to build  
fully qualified network names. For example, if the default  
search domain is hp.comand you specify the e-mail server  
as email_gw,the digital sender tries to contact the computer  
identified by the fully qualified network name  
email_gw.hp.com.Usually the default search domain  
corresponds to the network domain where the digital sender is  
installed. If you do not specify a default, all the network names  
used by the digital sender must be fully qualified ones.  
Otherwise, they cannot be resolved.  
For WINS. Type an IP address for the Primary WINS Server  
(required when WINS is enabled) and a Secondary WINS  
Server (optional).  
EN  
Extended and optional configuration steps 47  
                 
Optional. The digital sender maintains a history (cache) of  
previous name resolutions. Using this cache improves  
response times, since the digital sender does not then have to  
repeat the query every time the same name needs to be  
resolved. If you wish to use the cache feature, click Advanced  
and then click the check box next to Enable WINS/DNS  
Name-to-IPAddress cache.

Security page. Used to configure the administrator profile and  
digital sender security preferences.  
If you did not enter the information at the control panel, type  
the administrator E-mail Address, Full Name, and Company  
Name. The e-mail address is used by the digital sender to  
notify the administrator when events that require attention  
have occurred.  
If you did not enter an administrator password at the control  
panel or want to change it, click Change password. Type the  
existing password (if there is one) in the Old field. Type the  
new password in the New field and then again in the Confirm  
new field. Click OK. Note that the administrator password is  
case-sensitive. A password change is not committed until you  
choose to exit the configuration pages and save the changes  
by clicking Finish (or OK if in expert mode).  
Select your preference for Notify me through e-mail when  
events that require my attention occur. This controls  
whether the administrator receives these notifications. (See  
about notifications.)  
Select your preference for Administrator must always  
validate creation/changes of registered user profiles. This  
controls whether the administrator must validate new user  
profiles and changes to existing user profiles before they can  
take effect.  
Select your preference for Allow guest usage. This  
determines who can use the digital sender: registered users  
(those with a user profile), guest users, or both.

Customizing the digital sender to support third-  
party programs  
You can customize the HP 9100C Digital Sender to support third-  
party programs being used in your office. Users then have the ability  
to distribute documents from the digital sender directly to these  
programs.  
Note  
Customizing for third-party support is an advanced feature of the digital  
sender. The interface with the third-party program is not automatic and  
requires special programming.  
Three steps are involved:  
1
Using the HP Address Book Manager, you assign a name for the  
third-party program to a function key; this is the name that  
appears on the control panel for users to select. The assignments  
appear under Customized Function Keys in the ABM main  
window. Up to 11 function keys can be customized in this way.  
2
Then, still in the ABM, you configure at least one destination for  
the customized function key. You can assign up to 512  
destinations to each function key. The destinations appear in the  
hierarchy under Customized Function Keys in the ABM main  
window. Each destination you configure is independent of the  
others. This means that you can have different settings for each  
(such as destination network address and file format).  
3
Prepare the third-party program to accept and use the data from  
the digital sender. For specific information on how to do this, see  
the digital sender website (http://www.digitalsender.hp.com).  
Once this work has been completed, users can select the third-party  
program they want by pressing the corresponding function key on the  
control panel at the digital sender. A list of the preconfigured  
destinations appears at the control panel and they choose the  
destination they want.  
The table on page 59 explains the items in the ABM that you  
configure for each function key. Steps for configuring this feature  
begin on page 60.  
58 Chapter 2 - Installing and configuring  
EN  
         
Items to configure for each function key assignment

document is delivered. Either the HP Digital Sender  
Link or the HP Digital Sender Service must be  
installed at this destination.  
Inbox Path  
Path to the folder at the network destination where  
the documents are stored. This folder can be a  
network folder, or one that is local to the computer  
where the HP Digital Sender Link or HP Digital  
Sender Service is installed. If you choose a network  
folder, the HP Digital Sender Link must have write  
access to that folder.

Coexisting with the HP Network ScanJet 5  
scanner  
Administrator matters  
The HP 9100C Digital Sender and the HP Network ScanJet 5  
scanner coexist on the same network without conflict.  
The two devices do not use the same resources.  
You do not overwrite or erase anything by installing the digital  
sender software.  
The version of the HP JetAdmin software that comes with the  
digital sender can manage both the digital sender and the HP  
Network ScanJet 5 scanner. (However, previous versions of the  
HP JetAdmin software do not work with the digital sender.)  
Client matters  
The client software for the HP 9100C Digital Sender and the HP  
Network ScanJet 5 scanner can coexist on the same computer, and  
in fact can interact.  
HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner  
Documents sent to the computer from the HP Network ScanJet 5  
scanner are routed using the HP ScanJet Utility. You can continue  
to use the PaperPortsoftware for HP to manage them. All this  
software can work independently of the client software for the  
digital sender.  
HP 9100C Digital Sender  
Documents sent to the computer from the digital sender are  
routed using the HP Digital Sender Link. The HP Address Book  
Manager is an additional software component for the digital  
sender.  
To use one program to manage all documents  
It is possible to use just one program on the computer to manage all  
scanned documents. Users can do this by specifying a program as  
the preferred inbox for the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner and setting  
the file type to .pdf (if available) or multipage .tif (see the  
documentation for the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner for information  
on setting these options). Documents are still routed using the HP  
ScanJet Utility, but they appear in the target program.  
The reverse is not possible. That is, you cannot use the PaperPort  
software with the digital sender.  
EN  
Coexisting with the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner 61  
         
When you install the client software on the user computer, the setup  
program detects if there is an HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner on the  
network. It gives you the opportunity to designate a target program as  
the preferred inbox for documents scanned with the HP Network  
ScanJet 5 scanner.  
To move e-mail addresses from the HP Network  
ScanJet 5 scanner to the digital sender  
You can export e-mail addresses in the HP ScanJet Utility to the  
digital sender HP Address Book Manager. In the HP ScanJet Utility,  
export the e-mail addresses in .csv (comma-separated value) format.  
Then use the ABM import procedure to import them for use with the  
digital sender.  
Note  
The e-mail feature was added to the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner  
with firmware version 2.0. The ability to export e-mail addresses  
assumes you have upgraded to firmware version 2.0.  
LAN fax service matters  
This section applies only when you plan to enable the digital sender  
fax service on a Windows NT server and you have already installed  
the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner on that server.  
If you do not plan to use the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner any  
longer, uninstall it before you install the digital sender. The reason for  
this is that the digital sender comes with two versions of the HP Digital  
Sender Service that supports the fax functionalityone to handle  
networks with just the digital sender, and a more extensive one to  
handle networks with both the digital sender and the HP Network  
ScanJet 5 scanner. If the setup program detects an HP Network  
ScanJet 5 scanner on the network, it installs the more extensive  
service. This more extensive service places a larger load on your  
network than the service for the digital sender alone.  
If you plan to use both the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner and the  
digital sender on the same network, make sure that all the software  
for the HP Network ScanJet 5 scanner is currently installed before  
you install the digital sender.  
The HP Digital Sender Service is installed as a service associated  
with an existing user account. The account must have the following  
characteristics:  
user password never expires  
user is part of the administrator group  
user has rights set to Logon as service”

IP Configuration  
To specify how the digital sender HP JetDirect print  
server obtains its TCP/IP configuration. Choices:  
MANUAL. From the control panel or using  
management software such as the HP JetAdmin  
software (you then use the IP Address, IP Subnet  
Mask, and IP Gateway parameters).  
BOOTP (Boot Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host  
Configuration Protocol). Automatically from the  
network (the IP Address, IP Subnet Mask, and IP  
Gateway parameters are ignored). A corresponding  
server must be running and properly configured.  
The next time you open the configuration menu, you  
see the values that the HP JetDirect print server  
automatically discovered. See Assigning an IP  
Two things happen if you configured the IP address  
using BOOTP or DHCP and later change the IP  
address at the control panel or in the HP JetAdmin  
software: (1) the IP address that was assigned is  
released and (2) the setting for this parameter changes  
to MANUAL.  
Changing this value causes the digital sender to shut  
down and restart.

Controlling notifications  
The digital sender notifies administrators and users of events in  
several ways:  
control panel messages  
These messages report status and error conditions. See Control  
panel messageson page 141 for a list and description of  
messages.  
activity log entries  
The activity log is a record of digital sender use and system  
activities. See Activity log messageson page 170 for a list and  
description of entries. See Using the activity logon page 113  
for information on how to access the activity log.  
e-mail welcome message for new user profile  
Every time you or a user creates a user profile, the digital sender  
sends a welcomemessage to the owner of the profile. The  
message serves the following purposes:  
notifies to which digital sender the profile has been added  
notifies that the profile is active and available at the control  
panel  
validates correctness of the frominformation in the profile  
provides a printed copy of the user profile contents  
e-mail message when important events occur  
The administrator can choose to receive e-mail messages for  
important events that occurfor example, if there is a change to  
fax transmission notifications  
Printed reports and e-mail messages with information about fax  
transmissions are provided if your LAN fax product supports  
notifications and if you have configured the digital sender for  
them. See the description of notifications on the HP JetAdmin  
notification of e-mail delivery (DSN)  
Users can enable or disable the Delivery Status Notification  
(DSN) feature in their user profiles if DSN is supported by your  
system. If the feature is enabled, the user receives a notification  
of e-mail delivery, but not a return copy of the message.  
EN  
Controlling notifications 85  
     
Notes about notifications:  
E-mail notifications require that the recipients have an e-mail  
address configured in their user profile.  
Your system might support DSN, but not all systems do. The  
route to an e-mail destination might include a node that does not  
support DSN. If DSN is not supported through the entire path, a  
return notification might not occur.  
All pending notifications are lost when you reset network  
parameters and when fatal errors occur in operation. If anyone  
turns the digital sender off, the notification for the job that was last  
submitted might also get lost (however, you can check the activity  
log to see if that particular transmission was successful).

Backing up and restoring address books  
Backing up  
Use this procedure for the following reasons:  
as a part of your regular routine for backing up important  
information  
before you make a large number of changes in the HP Address  
Book Manager  
to make a copy of information so that you can replicate it on  
another digital sender  
when instructed to do so by troubleshooting steps or  
HP customer support  
Notes about the procedure:  
The administrator and users can both back up address books, but  
they have different capabilities:  
administrator  
Can save a copy of all public and private address books, user  
profiles, printer assignments, and function key assignments.  
users  
Can save a copy of only their private address books.  
The procedure does not back up any configuration performed at  
the control panel or through the HP JetAdmin software.  
The complete activity log is included in the backup.  
You can save the backup file only on a computer where the  
HP Digital Sender Link has write access.  
Backup requires from 10 to 20 minutes (depending on the amount  
of information being backed up).  
The backup creates 19 files. We recommend that you store these  
backup files in an otherwise empty folder.  
Backup requires an average of 50 to 100 MB of free hard disk  
space.  
Do not delete, rename, or make any changes to the backup files.  
If you do, the complete set becomes unusable.  
Backing up locks the digital sender and the ABM from use until  
the backup is complete.  
94 Chapter 3 - Administering

Importing e-mail addresses into address  
books  
This section contains information about importing e-mail addresses  
that pertains to the administrator.  
Both users and the administrator can import e-mail addresses into the  
digital sender, but they have different capabilities:  
Users can import e-mail addresses only into their private e-mail  
address books. The administrator can import e-mail addresses  
into the Public Email address book.  
Users can import CSV (comma-separated value) files and LDIF  
(LDAP Data Interchange Format) files. The administrator can  
import these types of files, as well as HPBC (Hewlett-Packard  
Batch Configuration) files. See the explanations and examples of  
these three file formats below.  
The administrator can choose to erase the contents of the  
address book into which the e-mail addresses are being  
imported, thus replacing the entire list. Users do not have this  
option.  
The procedures are the same for users and the administrator. See the  
user guide or the ABM online help for steps.  
A record of problems encountered during import is kept in a log file  
called ImportAB.log. You can find this log in the Windows\Temp folder  
of the computer on which the ABM is running. If errors occur during  
the import, a message box asks if you want to view the log file then.  
You can view the file at a later time as well, using any program (such  
as Notepad) that reads .txt files.

Managing printers  
To enable convenience copying or printing of fax transaction reports,  
you need to set up at least one printer for use with the ABM. The list  
of printers that you make available appears in the ABM main window  
under Public Printers.  
The printers you choose must already be configured on the network.  
You can set up any number of printers for convenience copying. At the  
digital sender, users then select the one they want to use. Only one  
printer can be used for fax transaction reports (users do not have a  
choice).

Using the activity log  
The digital sender keeps a record of events in an activity log (see the  
box below). Every event has an owner”—the individual who initiated  
the action. System events (such as configuration changes made at  
the control panel) name the administrator as their owner.  
Both users and the administrator can view the log, but they have  
different capabilities:  
Users can view only the events they own as registered users and  
the events initiated by guests users. The administrator can view  
the log for the administrator, or the log for any user (registered or  
guest).  
The activity log for a user can hold up to 100 events. The log for  
the administrator can hold up to 200 events.  
When the maximum number of entries in the activity log is  
reached, new events begin overwriting the oldest events.  
You can view the log, copy and paste it into another program, save it  
to a separate file, print it, or clear it.  
See Activity log messageson page 170 for a list and explanation of  
the messages.

Make sure the digital sender is turned on.  
Make sure the digital sender is unlocked. If you try to send a  
document when the digital sender is locked, it will emit a harsh,  
grinding sound.  
See if the digital sender has overheated. The digital sender  
automatically turns off if environmental conditions cause it to  
overheat. If this happens, turn the power off, wait for it to cool  
down, and then turn it back on.  
Check that the digital sender is connected to and communicating  
on the network. To do this, use a network command such as ping.  
You can also use the HP JetAdmin software by trying to find the  
device on the network.

Make sure the e-mail server is running.  
Check the returned mailmessage (if one was received) for the  
reason the e-mail message was not delivered. If the message was  
too big to transmit, consider changing your configuration. For  
example, you can use the HP JetAdmin software (E-mail page  
Advanced option) to adjust the size of messages transmitted  
(thereby splitting up large messages into multiple smaller  
messages). Or, raise the maximum e-mail message size that your  
e-mail server accepts (see the documentation for that server).  
Make sure the HP JetDirect print server is communicating with the  
network. To do this, verify that the TCP/IP status parameter on the  
self-test page reads READY,and then try to reach the digital  
sender using a network command such as ping.  
Verify that digital sender e-mail configuration is correct by sending  
a test e-mail message to yourself (see E-mail service

Checking the address book database  
At any time, you can check the database of address books to correct  
problems and inconsistencies in the information.  
Perform the database check for the following reasons:  
when the digital sender seems to be performing slowly for no  
apparent reason  
when the digital sender was inadvertently turned off during a  
sensitive operation (such as during a backup or restore)  
when you detect inconsistencies between address books and  
distribution lists  
when instructed to do so by troubleshooting steps or by  
HP customer support  
Notes about the procedure:  
The procedure causes the digital sender to shut down and then  
restart.  
You can use either the control panel or the ABM to perform the  
check.  
The procedure can take as long as 25 minutes, based on the  
amount of information in address books.  
Note  
If the check fails, turn the digital sender off and back on, and then try  
again. If the problem persists, the address book database is beyond  
recovery. Try resetting and restoring address books (see Resetting”  
on page 90 and Restoringon page 96). If neither of these actions  
resolves the problem, contact HP customer support.

E-mail service troubleshooting  
You can use the HP JetAdmin software to verify that the path from the  
digital sender to the e-mail server is properly configured and working.  
This procedure remotely sends a test e-mail message from the digital  
sender to the e-mail address that has been configured for the  
administrator.  
The only way to see if data has been successfully transferred from the  
digital sender to the e-mail server is to check the activity log (see

Fax service troubleshooting  
There are several ways you can troubleshoot the fax service:  
check fax notifications (if configured)  
check the fax folder and workarea  
check the link between the digital sender and the LAN fax server  
To check fax notifications  
Fax notifications (e-mail messages or printed transaction reports)  
occur only under the following circumstances:  
your LAN fax product supports notifications  
you have enabled notifications on the Fax page in the HP  
for e-mail messages, an e-mail address has been configured in  
the recipients user profile  
Fax notifications provide the following information:

transmission failed”  
The LAN fax server failed to send the fax.  
missed notification”  
The digital sender did not receive any notification from the LAN  
fax server within 24 hours from the time the fax was sent.  
To check the fax folder and workarea  
You might need to check or change the fax folder or workarea  
(originally set up during installation). You can do this in two ways:  
Run the setup program again. Choose the option for installing the  
HP Digital Sender Service. The program will discover that you  
have already installed the service and ask if you want to reinstall  
the service or change the fax workarea.  
Stop the fax service and reenter the fax workarea path. Locate  
the HP Digital Sender Service from the list of installed Control  
Panel services. Stop the service and type the new fax workarea  
path in the Startup Parameters line. Then start the service again.  
Use the format shown below for the workarea path (in particular,  
note the double backslash \\):

To check the link between the digital sender and the  
LAN fax server  
You can use the HP JetAdmin software to check the link between the  
digital sender and the LAN fax server. This procedure detects if the  
digital sender is still waiting for notification from the LAN fax server  
about faxes that have been sent. You can also use this procedure to  
check whether fax transmissions are pending. Note that you can  
obtain information about intermediate states of fax transmission (for  
example, busy or transmitting) only through the LAN fax software.

or whether an error conditions exists.  
parameters and for steps on how to access the self-test page.  
HP J3113A print server for Fast Ethernet  
(10/100Base-TX) networks  
You can use the green LEDs on the HP J3113A print server (interface  
card) to confirm that the interface card is connected to the network.  
Either the 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps LED should be on.  
Jumpers  
LEDs  
If the interface card fails to establish a network link through  
autonegotiation, you might need to change the position of  
configuration jumpers P1, P2, and P3 on the interface card (see the  
figure on the next page). The default position is P1 AUTO=ON. In this  
position, the interface card attempts to connect automatically to the  
network at the detected speed (10 or 100 Mbps) and communication  
mode (full-duplex or half-duplex). The options are:  
100 Mbps at full-duplex  
100 Mbps at half-duplex  
10 Mbps at full-duplex  
10 Mbps at half-duplex  
168 Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting  
EN  
         
If you change P1 to the AUTO=OFF position, then P2 selects the link  
speed (10 or 100 Mbps) and P3 selects the communication mode  
(half-duplex or full-duplex). If you manually configure the interface  
card using jumpers P2 and P3, verify that the configuration of the  
connecting network device (such as a network switch) matches. For  
example, if you set the interface card for 100Base-TX full-duplex  
operation, the port on the network switch must be set to 100 Mbps  
full-duplex operation. Once you have changed the jumpers and  
reinstalled the interface card, be sure to turn the digital sender off and  
then on again. The interface card might require up to 10 seconds to  
establish a connection on the network. Then verify that the TCP/IP  
status parameter on the self-test page reads READY.”

Restoring old firmware images  
Use this procedure for the following reasons:  
to restore the previous version of firmware in the digital sender  
when an upgrade to new firmware (as described in Upgrading  
unsatisfactory  
when instructed to do so by troubleshooting steps or by  
HP customer support  
Notes about the procedure:  
You cannot restore old firmware images if you have processed  
more than 50 jobs at the digital sender using a more current  
version of firmware.  
Restoring firmware images locks the digital sender from use and  
then restarts it.  
The procedure does not touch information in the digital sender  
database, such as address books.  
The process takes from 1 to 5 minutes.  
To restore old firmware images  
1
Make sure the digital sender is idle (the green light under the  
button is off).  
2
Shut the digital sender down (in the configuration menu, press  
TOOLS, select Shutdown, and then press OK twice).  
3

5
Turn the digital sender off.  
Turn the digital sender back on.  
Watch the control panel. When the screen changes from all blue  
to a combination of all blue and light blue, press and hold the  
following sequence of keys until the screen changes again:  
SHIFT+ALT+F0  
(F0 is the left-most function key on the control panel.)

Configuration methods  
When configuring the digital sender, a user or administrator may  
employ several methods. These methods include using the control  
panel, using configuration software, and using the Web Access tool.  
Web Access is a new tool that offers increased flexibility when  
configuring the HP Digital Sender 9100C.  
Control panel configuration  
This configuration is accomplished using the control panel on the  
digital sender. An administrator would configure fast-track parameters  
and extended and optional parameters using the control panel  
keyboard and menu options.  
Configuration software  
An administrator can use the HP JetAdmin software and Address  
Book Manager (ABM) to configure a digital sender from a computer.  
Web Access  
You can now remotely configure the HP Digital Sender 9100C quickly  
and easily using the new Web Access tool, which is an embedded  
Web server in the digital sender. You can configure all necessary  
settings using this tool and a standard Web browser from any  
computer on the network. To use the Web Access tool, type the digital  
sender’s IP address or DNS hostname followed by ":4242" in the  
address bar of your Web browser. For digital senders with an HP  
Jetdirect 610n print server (network interface card), there is no need  
to add ":4242".  
Example:  
With HP Jetdirect 600 print server: http://255.255.255.255:4242  
With HP Jetdirect 610n print server: http://255.255.255.255

Enhanced network support  
The HP Digital Sender 9100C supports the HP Jetdirect 610n print  
server (network interface card). This card is required for full use of the  
Web Access tool over a Token Ring network. The HP Jetdirect 610n  
also allows access to the digital sender’s embedded Web server  
without typing ":4242" after the IP address in your Web browser’s  
Using a Web server for user authentication  
In the past, users could be authenticated when opening the Address  
Book Manager (ABM) from their computers or when sending at the  
digital sender itself. Now you can authenticate users trying to send  
from the digital sender using a Web server, with or without encryption.  
With encryption, this method of authentication is a secure method.  
A Web server controls access to one or more of its resource items,  
pages, programs, or other objects, which can be requested by a  
browser-like client on the computer or on the network. (In this case,  
the browser-like client is the digital sender.) The Web server can ask  
the browser-like requestor (digital sender) for user credentials, such  
as a user account name and corresponding password. Before  
returning the requested resource, the Web server can verify the user  
account name and password against a user account database, such  
as the NT domain user account database, on the local computer or  
the NT domain controller.  
After checking against the user account database, one of the following  
situations occurs:  
If the Web server authenticates the user, the digital sender must  
determine the user's e-mail address from its own user profile  
database or, if that is unsuccessful, from an LDAP server. If the  
digital sender finds an e-mail address that corresponds to the  
user name, it adds the user's e-mail address into the From: field  
and the user can continue using the digital sender. If the digital  
sender cannot find an e-mail address that corresponds to the user  
name, authentication is unsuccessful. This process provides  
greater assurance that someone trying to send an e-mail or fax  
cannot send it using another person's name.  
8
Addendum  
EN  
   
If the Web server cannot authenticate the user, access to the  
digital sender is denied if you have enabled login. If you have  
disabled login, then the user can use the digital sender and enter  
any valid e-mail address.  
Note  
For thegreatestassurance that users arenot sending e-mailand faxes  
using someone else’s name, you must enable login on all digital  
senders.  
Using the IIS Web server  
Although you can use any Web server for authentication, Microsoft®  
Internet Information Services (IIS) contains a Web server useful for  
user authentication. Because IIS and its Web server are integrated  
into the Microsoft operating system, they are easy to use for  
configuring authentication. IIS, which is part of the Microsoft Back  
Office, is an option included with Windows® NT 4.0 Server edition,  
Windows 2000 Server edition, and NT 4.0 Option Pack.  
When authenticating users, the IIS Web server checks the user  
account name and password against the user account database of  
the local Windows NT or 2000 operating system and/or the NT  
domain. This check is commonly referred to as NT user  
authentication, or NTLM. Use the following directions to prepare the  
IIS Web server to authenticate digital sender users.  
Preparing the IIS Web server to work with digital  
senders  
In order for digital sender users to use Web-based authentication  
against an NT domain or workgroup, the IIS administrator must  
perform the following general steps. For more specific instructions for  
working with IIS, see the documentation provided with IIS.  
1
If Web-based authentication against an NT Domain is preferred,  
choose a Windows NT 4.0 server or Windows 2000 server to host  
the IIS. This server must be a Primary Domain Controller, Domain  
member, or a member of a trusted Domain against which the  
administrator wants to authenticate.  
2
3
Install and setup IIS 5.0 for Windows 2000 or IIS 4.0 for Windows  
NT 4.0 Server.  
Open Internet Service Manager (IIS) and set up a home directory  
or virtual directory for the IIS Web server in Default Web Site. It is  
highly recommended that a home or virtual directory be created  
just for the purpose of digital sender user authentication against  
EN  
Using a Web server for user authentication

Windows. Having a dedicated virtual directory is assumed in the  
steps outlined from this point forward.  
4
5
In Windows Explorer, place a default html page in the local  
directory with which the virtual directory is associated. For  
performance reasons, it is highly recommended that this local  
directory be located on the same server as the one hosting the IIS  
Web server.  
If the IIS administrator wants the NT user account name and  
password to be encrypted between the digital sender and the IIS  
Web server, then configure the IIS Web server for server-side  
SSL (secure socket layer). This means the virtual directory is  
configured to support only HTTPS requests from browser-like  
clients. Complete these steps:  
a
Request an application server SSL certificate from a selected  
certificate authority.  
b
Install the application server SSL certificate into the certificate  
store of the IIS Web server.  
6
7
In Internet Service Manager (IIS), right-click the virtual directory  
and click Properties.  
On the Directory Security tab, do the following:  
a
In the Anonymous access and authentication control area,  
click Edit. Select the Basic Authentication check box and  
clear the Anonymous Access and Integrated Windows  
Authentication check boxes. When the Warning message  
dialog box regarding clear text passwords on the network  
appears, click Yes to continue.  
b
In the Authentication Access area, click Edit. Type the default  
domain in the Domain Name field and click OK twice.  
8
9
On the Virtual Directory tab, clear the Directory Browsing and  
Write check boxes, select the Read check box, and click OK. This  
step provides extra security and is strongly recommended.  
Close IIS.  
10 In Windows Explorer, right-click the local directory associated with  
the virtual directory and click Properties.  
11 Restrict access to the local directory to only those NT account  
users who you want to be authenticated by the digital sender.  
Right-click the local directory and click Properties. On the  
Security tab, select the NT user account names and group  
names you want.  
12 Right-click the default html page in the local directory and click  
10  
Addendum  
EN  
Properties. On the Security tab, select all of the NT user account  
names and group names you selected in the previous step.  
13 All NT user account names and group names requiring  
authentication from the virtual directory require the user right to  
“Log on locally.” While logged on as an NT user account with  
administrative privileges, set this user right using User Manager  
(NT 4.0) or Local Security Policy (Windows 2000).  
IIS is now ready to support digital sender user authentication against

Using a Web server for user authentication 11  
Preparing the digital sender to work with a  
Web server  
No matter which Web server you use for authentication, you will need  
to prepare the digital sender to work with it.  
To prepare the digital sender to work with a Web  
server  
1
Open a Web browser and type the URL for the Web page for the  
digital sender you want. If DNS is configured, you can use the  
host name in the URL. Otherwise, you need to use the IP address  
in the URL. Also, the URL must be followed by :4242, which is the  
port number of the embedded Web server. For example:  
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:4242.  
Note  
If the digital sender has an HP Jetdirect 610n print server (network  
interface card), you do not have to add :4242.  
2
If the Web page is password protected, you will be prompted for  
the administrator User Name and Password for this digital sender.  
The User Name is always “Administrator.”  
3
4
When the Web page for the digital sender opens, click Settings  
and then click Authentication.  
In the URL field, type the URL of the Web server you want to use  
for authentication. If DNS is configured, you can use the host  
name in the URL. Otherwise, you need to use the IP address in  
the URL.  
If you are enabling SSL on the Web server, be sure to:  
• type "https" at the beginning of the URL.  
• use the hostname you used to create your certificate and not  
the IP address of the webserver in your URL.  
• Enable DNS which is required for hostname resolution.  
If this field is empty, Web authentication is disabled.  
5
The NT User Domain ID field is blank by default. This is the name  
of the LDAP attribute used to return e-mail addresses to the  
From: field on the digital sender. Do one of the following:  
• If you want to use e-mail addresses found in an LDAP  
database, type the name of the LDAP database attribute that  
contains the user name and ID information.  
12  
Addendum  
EN  
 
• If you want to use e-mail addresses found in the digital sender  
user profile database instead, this field is not relevant and will  
be ignored. Go to the next step.  
6
7
In the Default Domain field, do one of the following:  
• If you are authenticating to a Web server running on Windows,  
type the default NT Domain Name. This should match the  
default Domain Name used by the Web server.  
• If you are authenticating to a Web server running on a platform  
other than Windows, leave this field blank.  
If the Web server is inside the firewall on your company intranet,  
leave the Proxy Address and Proxy Port fields empty. Only fill in  
these fields if the Web server is outside the firewall.  
Note  
If the Web server is outside the firewall, the Web server should be  
enabled for SSL. If you are using the IIS Web server, see “Preparing  
instructions.  
8
9
Click Apply.  
Click Test Login to Authentication Server. Type a valid User  
Name, Password, and Domain name for a network user who has  
all permissions necessary to access the digital sender. You  
should receive a message stating that login was successful.  
Note  
If the login fails, try typing the Web server address in any Web browser.  
See if you can open the Web page for the Web server. If not, check  
the accuracy of the URL.  
10 Do one of the following:  
• Add user profiles to the user profile database of this digital  
sender for all users you want to be authenticated and to be  
allowed access to the digital sender. Each profile must contain  
a valid e-mail address, and the name of the user profile must  
exactly match the user name in the user database against  
which the Web server is authenticating.  
• Configure the digital sender’s LDAP feature to match account  
user names to LDAP common names. The LDAP method may  
require the LDAP administrator to add a custom field to the  
for more information.  
EN  
Using a Web server for user authentication 13  
Note  
These users must also have been given access to the Web server’s  
local directory, either as an individual or as a member of a group.  
This last step is the means for returning an e-mail address for a user  
to the From: field on the digital sender.  
Configuring the LDAP server  
If you want the digital sender to try to return e-mail addresses from an  
LDAP database, the LDAP database must have an attribute  
containing the user name and ID, or the LDAP administrator must add  
an attribute that will contain this information. The name of the attribute  
must match the name entered in the NT User Domain ID field on the  
Web page for this digital sender.  
Note  
To see if thereis alreadyanattributeinyourLDAPdatabasecontaining  
the user name and ID, you can configure the LDAP database as an  
address book in NetScape Navigator (from theCommunicator menu,  
click Address Book). Once the LDAP database is configured, search  
for a user, such as yourself. When the record appears, look for an  
attribute containing the user name and ID.  
Use the Web Access tool to select any of these From: field options.  
From: the Settings tab, select Send To, E-mail, then click the  
Configure e-mail From: field address button.  
LDAP. This attribute in the LDAP database must contain the fully  
qualified user account names. If you are authenticating against  
Windows, the fully qualified user account name is the NT domain  
name plus the NT user name, such as Chicago:JohnDoe. Note  
that although Windows fully qualified user account names usually  
contain a “/” between the NT domain name and the NT user  
name, LDAP requires a “:” instead.  
Login. This is an LDAP attribute that contains only the NT user

Sending to e-mail  
When sending to e-mail, users can now blind carbon copy (BCC)  
recipients, see the default subject in the subject field, increase text  
box message control, and select the file format. The administrator can  
also set the SMTP gateway polling frequency and time zone for e-mail  
messages. A From: field test has also been introduced for enhancing  
e-mail delivery reliability.  
Using blind carbon copy  
The digital sender now supplies a BCC addressing mode, which  
allows a user to copy an e-mail to someone without his or her name  
appearing as a copied recipient. When a user is in the addressing  
mode, he or she can switch between the TO, CC, and BCC fields  
using the keyboard arrow keys. After pressing ENTER, the user moves  
to the Destination field to enter a recipient’s address.  
Viewing the default subject  
The Subject field now displays the default subject when a user first  
creates a new e-mail. Previously, if the user did not add a subject, the  
default subject was inserted as the mail was sent, so the user never  
saw the subject. After the Subject field has been entered, the  
addressing mode automatically appears.  
Entering a message  
Users can now enter a personalized message with the new text box  
feature. In addition to receiving a generated notification message, a  
user may also enter a personalized message that will accompany the  
attachments. This message appears in the recipient’s e-mail browser  
window, along with the attached files.  
A user may begin entering a message at any time while using the  
e-mail function. A user always has direct access to the text box feature  
via the new MESSAGE key on the control panel of the digital sender. It  
is the third function key below the control panel display.  
EN  
Sending to e-mail 15  
       
Users have the ease of text editing as with many basic word  
processing programs. Users can edit a message using the backspace  
and arrow keys. A highlighted cursor appears throughout the text to  
show the position of insertion or deletion while typing. The CLEAR key  
allows a user to delete all typed text in the text box window without  
exiting the text box window. The CANCEL key allows the user to delete  
all text and cancel out of the text box window completely.  
Choosing a file format  
For additional flexibility, users can select the file format of the e-mail  
attachment at the control panel. As the administrator, you can enable  
or disable this feature from the HP JetAdmin software, the Web  
Access tool, or from the Configuration menu at the control panel.  
The two file formats that are available for sending e-mail are:  
TIFF 6.0  
PDF  
Using TIFF 6.0  
As the administrator, you can now configure e-mail to allow  
attachments to be sent in the new TIFF 6.0 format. TIFF 6.0  
represents the most recent advances in the industry-standard TIFF  
file format. This newest version is both capable of storing multiple  
pages and color images in compressed format. At this time, Microsoft  
Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3 ship a viewer  
that supports this file type.  
Using PDF  
A user may also send documents using Adobe Portable Document  
Format (PDF). PDF files are compact and can be shared, viewed,  
navigated, and printed exactly as intended by any recipient who has  
Adobe Acrobat® Reader 4.05. This version of Adobe Acrobat Reader  
is included on the CD-ROM containing the new HP Digital Sender  
9100C software version 4.0.  
Note  
HP's Smart Compression Technology optimizes file sizes for sending  
PDF files without compromising quality or creating additional network  
traffic.

Specifying the time zone  
As the administrator, you can now specify the time zone for e-mail  
messages being sent. Use the Configuration menu in the digital  
sender or the Web Access tool.  
Editing the e-mail header  
Using the Web Access tool, you can edit the information in the e-mail  
header (sometimes known as the e-mail cover page). From the  
Settings tab, select Send To, E-mail, Configure E-mail Format  
Settings, and Customize E-mail Header Page.  
Setting e-mail security  
The HP Digital Sender 9100C integrates with Omtools Genidocs to  
provide secure e-mail. The recipient of the e-mail must provide  
identification, and the e-mail message itself is encrypted during  
transport. Use the Web Access tool to configure e-mail security. From  
the Settings tab, select Send To and E-mail to open the e-mail  
configuration page.  
Setting SMTP gateway polling frequency  
As the administrator, you can use the HP JetAdmin software to  
configure the frequency of the SMTP gateway polling. This feature  
helps the HP Digital Sender 9100C generate less network traffic while  
checking the e-mail server/SMTP gateway. Polling frequency ranges  
from 0 minutes to every 24 hours. You can completely disable polling  
by setting the value to 0 minutes.  
Note  
If you disable polling, e-mail transmissions may be unsuccessful, and  
no indication appears on the control panel if the e-mail server is not  
running. Users must check the transaction log to see the status of sent  
e-mail messages.  
E-mail delivery reliability  
A potential problem with sending e-mails to any destination is that  
when the From: field is not valid (does not contain an @ or a period,  
or has embedded spaces), the e-mail may not be sent, and  
notification would not be given to the user. To prevent this situation, a  
EN  
Sending to e-mail 17  
         
From: field test has been developed that will automatically test a  
guest user’s From: field and subsequently allow the guest user to  
select fix, help, or ignore.  
The From: field test will only be used for guest users. It will not be  
used for registered or administrative users. This test can be enabled  
or disabled by the administrator using the control panel or the Web  
Access tool.

Sending to fax  
Users can now send to fax distribution lists, enter a billing account  
code, and use Internet fax service (if your company subscribes to it).  
As a new feature, the digital sender fully functions with the Lotus Fax  
for Domino add-in.  
Using Public Fax Distribution Lists  
At the control panel, users can now select predefined fax distribution  
lists from the Public Fax Address Book. When users choose Send to  
Fax and begin typing a name, the digital sender searches for both fax  
numbers and fax distribution lists whose names begin with the letters  
the user types.  
Users create fax distribution lists using the Address Book Manager  
(ABM). See the Help file for the ABM for more information.  
Entering a billing account code  
Using the HP JetAdmin software or the Web Access tool, the  
administrator can enable or disable the billing account code feature.  
When this feature is enabled, users can enter at the control panel a  
billing account code of up to 31 characters for each fax sent. This  
account code is sent to the fax server to bill the job cost.  
If the user enters an account code, it overrides the default assigned  
using the ABM. If the user leaves the field blank, the default account  
code assigned to the fax number is used. The fax server verifies the  
account code’s validity.  
Receiving error messages  
Users automatically receive an error message at the control panel if  
the HP Digital Sender Service is unavailable to transmit faxes to the  
LAN fax server.  
EN  
Sending to fax 19  
       
Using Internet fax  
The digital sender is now capable of sending faxes via an Internet fax  
service provider, to which your company must subscribe. Using an  
Internet service provider means users can send faxes at a lower cost  
than when using traditional telephone service. The administrator uses  
the HP JetAdmin software or Web Access tool to configure the fax  
function to use Internet fax service instead of the LAN fax server.  
Then, the control panel displays a window similar to that used for the  
traditional fax functionality:  
Enter a fax recipient

SETTINGS  
BACK  
The billing account field for Internet faxes contains the default account  
defined by the administrator (using the HP JetAdmin software or the  
Web Access tool). The default account code can be overridden if the  
user types a different code in that field. The account code entered  
must be a registered account with the Internet fax service provider.  
Instead of entering an account code, the user can select his or her  
user name as the account code. In this case, the Internet fax service  
provider uses the e-mail account associated with that user name to  
notify the user of the fax status. If the digital sender is configured only  
for registered users, users can only change the default account code  
to their registered user names.

Using Fax for Domino  
The digital sender now supports Fax for Domino, which is a Lotus  
Domino server add-in. The digital sender supports Lotus Domino  
server 4.6.5 or later and the Fax for Domino add-in 4.1 or later. The  
Domino server, the Domino Fax for Domino add-in, and the Domino  
SMTP/MIME MTA add-in together function as a hybrid between LAN  
and Internet faxing. Essentially, they are a LAN fax solution with an  
Internet fax interface.  
The HP Digital Sender 9100C is the fastest and easiest way to digitize  
and send paper-based documents via a Domino mail and fax server.  
When a user sends a fax from the digital sender, the digital sender  
sends the fax to the Domino server at 15 pages per minute. Then, the  
Fax for Domino add-in sends an e-mail to the sender of the fax once  
the fax is transmitted.  
Configuring Fax for Domino  
To make the HP Digital Sender 9100C work with Lotus Fax for  
Domino, you must:  
Install the Fax for Domino add-in and the SMTP/MIME MTA add-  
in.  
Configure the E-mail function for the digital sender.  
Configure the Fax function for the digital sender.  
Note  
Because the e-mail and fax functions share the SMTP gateway, you  
must use Lotus Domino for e-mail as well as LAN fax.  
The digital sender administrator will need to know the Foreign Fax  
Domain (FFD) and SMTP domain. You can obtain these items from  
the Domino administrator.  
To prepare Fax for Domino  
Note  
These steps should be performed by the Domino administrator.  
1
If not already installed, install the Fax for Domino add-in and the  
SMTP/MIME MTA add-in.  
2
Configure an SMTP/MIME MTA (SMTP gateway) add-in to allow  
the digital sender to work with Fax for Domino. The Domino  
SMTP/MIME MTA must be configured to allow ingress of e-mail  
addressed with the selected SMTP domain.

Sending a fax when using Lotus Fax for  
Domino  
Users can address documents they are faxing from the digital sender  
two ways. In the To field, they should do one of the following:  
Type the fax number of the recipient.  
Type the name of the recipient, “@”, and the fax number.  
For example: Recipient@2085551111  
If the Cover Page option is enabled in the Fax for Domino add-in and  
a user types the recipient name with the fax number (second bullet  
above), the name is placed on the cover page in the To field. To  
prevent a name from appearing in the To field, the user should type  
only the fax number. Or the administrator can disable the Cover Page  
option in the Fax for Domino add-in.  
Preventing transmission of unnecessary fax  
pages  
When the Cover Page option is enabled, the Fax for Domino add-in  
transmits an extra, unnecessary fax page containing only the MIME  
attachment icon with each fax sent. To prevent this extra fax page, ask  
the Domino administrator to turn off the Cover Page option or perform

Sending to the PC or another program  
When sending a document to a PC or another program, users can  
select a name for the document at the control panel. When sending to  
another program, users can also select a tag for the document.  
Typing document names  
In the Configuration menu of a digital sender, the administrator can  
enable the document-name selection feature, which allows users to  
enter a name for a document being sent to a PC or another program.  
When the feature is enabled, a text field appears in the job window.  
The name entered for the file must adhere to these rules:  
The file name can be blank. In this case, the daemon on the target  
PC creates a file name automatically according to its rules.  
If the user does enter a name, it cannot start with a blank space.  
Any name entered cannot contain the characters \, /, :, *, ., ?, ", <,  
>, or | (sometimes called the pipe or line character; appears on  
the same key as the \ character).  
The document cannot be named AUX, PRN, or CON.  
Any name entered can be a maximum of 32 characters.  
If users enter a name that does not adhere to these rules, they receive  
an error message.  
Names entered at the control panel are altered at the destination  
under the following circumstances:  
If the user types a name of more than eight characters and the file  
system on the destination computer does not support names that  
long, the name of the document is shortened to the first eight  
characters.  
If the user types a name for the document but a document with  
that name already exists on the destination computer, the name of  
the document the user just sent is altered. If the file system  
accepts names longer than eight characters, an underscore and  
number followed by [appended] are added to the end of the  
document name. If the file system does not accept names longer  
than eight characters, the name of the document is shortened to  
the first seven characters, and the eighth character is changed to  
make the name unique.

Contrast settings  
The digital sender uses an image processing function that  
automatically selects the best contrast level for each scanned page  
when the user selects B/W Document as the document quality level  
(Automatic contrast). The function produces good quality scans, even  
for documents with very lightly printed text.  
The administrator can set the digital sender to use a default contrast  
level he or she chooses instead of the Automatic one. In the  
Configuration menu at the control panel, the administrator sets the  
contrast to Manual and then selects a default contrast level.  
Users can override the Automatic contrast level or the default contrast  
level on a per-job basis from the control panel.  
Changing the contrast on a per-job basis  
The contrast level for any job can be changed from a job window, such  
as the e-mail or fax window. When a user first enters the job window,  
the contrast is set to the Automatic or default contrast level. At any  
time before sending the job, a user can change the contrast level by  
pressing SHIFT+SETTINGS. The following picture shows the dialog box  
where the user sets the contrast level:

Additions and enhancements to software 31  
 
Using HP JetAdmin software updates  
The administrator's setup program includes an updated version of the  
HP JetAdmin software. While the digital sender is still fully compatible  
with the previous version of the HP JetAdmin software, HP wants to  
provide you with the features available in the most current version.  
Default e-mail attachment format  
This new version of the HP JetAdmin software, along with the new  
HP JetAdmin software extensions for the digital sender, allows you to  
select the default e-mail attachment format. Change this option by  
selecting a digital sender and in the HP JetAdmin software, choosing  
Modify from the File menu. Then, click the E-mail tab.  
Internet fax configuration  
The Fax tab allows you to choose either Internet fax service or a LAN  
fax server as the method for delivering faxes sent from the digital  
sender. If you choose Internet fax service, another dialog box  
appears. This dialog box allows you to set the domain, default file  
format, and default billing account code.  
SMTP gateway polling frequency  
In the E-mail advanced settings dialog box, you can set the polling  
frequency. This feature helps the HP Digital Sender 9100C generate  
less network traffic while checking the e-mail server/SMTP gateway.  
Polling frequency ranges from 0 minutes to every 24 hours. You can  
completely disable the polling by setting the value to 0 minutes. If you  
do so, no indication appears on the control panel if the e-mail server is  
not running. Users must check the transaction log for e-mail status.  
Security  
Addition of a new security level allows you as the administrator to  
decide whether or not users can change their user profiles. You can  
also completely disable users’ ability to create profiles.  
Support for Microsoft Sharepoint Portal  
Server (MS SPPS)  
Customized function keys have been extended to support MS SPPS  
integration. This allows additional attributes such as additional tag  
fields, definable drop-down lists, and additional screens to create a

Using other administration tools  
The new software offers you as the administrator the ability to create a  
greater number of user profiles, import address books more easily,  
determine software setup options more specifically, and gain more  
extensive logging capabilities during software setup.  
Support for third-party programs  
You can now use the new software developer kit (SDK) for the HP  
Digital Sender 9100C to configure the address books in a digital  
sender. The SDK offers an alternative method to using the ABM to do  
this task. Download the SDK from www.digitalsender.hp.com.  
Determining software setup options  
As the administrator, you can select the preferred language and  
components you want to install on a network drive for clients to access  
when they install software. Previously, you had to install all languages  
and components to the network drive.  
Logging for the setup program  
The software setup program for both Administrator and Client  
installations now supports improved logging capabilities. These logs  
list errors that might have occurred during installation and are useful  
in troubleshooting failed installations.
