• Introduction
• Before you begin
• Step one: Access the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS)
• Step two: Enable Save to SharePoint® and create a Save to SharePoint Quick Set
• Scan and save a file directly to a Microsoft SharePoint site
• Quick set scan settings and options for Save to SharePoint^®

Use Save to SharePoint® to scan documents directly to a Microsoft® SharePoint site. This feature eliminates the need to scan the documents to a network folder, USB flash drive, or email message, and then manually upload the files to the SharePoint site.

Save to SharePoint® supports all scanning options, including the ability to scan documents as images or use the OCR features to create text files or searchable PDFs.

The feature is disabled by default. Enable Save to SharePoint® in the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS).

Before this procedure can be completed, the destination folder that the scanned files will be saved to must exist on the SharePoint site, and write access must be enabled to the destination folder. Save to SharePoint® is disabled by default.

2. 2.

   Open a Web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name of the printer exactly as it displays on the printer control panel. Press the Enter key on the computer keyboard. The EWS opens.
