HTTP/HTTPS
Before you begin:
Enable HTTP or Secure HTTP (SSL). Ensure that a certificate is installed on the printer if you are
using SSL.
Configure your web server, and ensure that HTTP/HTTPS services are running. POST requests and
scanned data will be sent to the server to be processed by a CGI script. Note the IP address or host
name of the web server.
Create a user account and password for the printer on the Web server. Note the user name and
password.
Create a home directory for the printer.
Create a bin directory in the home directory
Copy an executable CGI script in the bin directory. You can create your own script, or
download a sample script. For details, see
CGI Scripts
on page 109. Note the path to the
script. The script can be defined with script_name.extension or by
path/script_name.extension.
Create a folder with read and write permissions on the Web server, or alternate server. Note the
directory path, user name, and password. This is your file repository.
Test the connection by logging in to the printer’s home directory on the Web server. Send a POST
request and file to the Web server. Check to see if the file is in the repository.
CGI Scripts
A CGI (Common Gateway Interface) script is a program on a Web server that is executed when the
server receives a request from a browser. A CGI script is required to allow files to be transferred to your
HTTP server from your printer.
When a document is scanned, the printer logs into the Web server, sends a POST request along with
the scanned file, then logs out. The CGI script handles the remaining details of file transfer.
