Scan to Card (Not available for MFC-240C and MFC-3360C)

Colour documents may be stored in PDF (*.PDF) or JPEG (*.JPG) file formats. File names are based on the current date. For example, the fifth image scanned on July 1, 2006 would be named 01070605.PDF. You can change the colour, quality and file name.
