1 About the digital sender 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
