Sending a Scanned Image via an E-mail Directly from the ScanSnap

By using ScanSnap Cloud, send an image created from the document that you scanned to the e-mail address which you registered in a profile in advance.

If you create a profile that has an e-mail address set for the e-mail destination and an e-mail subject, you can send a scanned image directly from the ScanSnap via e-mail without using a computer.
