How to Connect to a Konica Copier to Scan
Konica multi-functional digital copiers can do much more than make copies. Once properly equipped, Konica devices can serve as a network printer, fax machine and network scanner. As more companies are using scanning solutions to better manage their paper and document work flow, scanning solutions are becoming quite popular. If you already own a Konica copier that is equipped with a network scan board, the process to set it up for scanning takes only a few steps. If you do not have a scan board installed, you must purchase and install the scanning board before being able to scan.
