If you don't have a department code for the (Astronomy) copier, you can use the “generic” code 53300, which allows you to scan but has no ability to copy or print.

MFP local scans can be found on the Windows network neighborhood, in the network path \\TOSHIBA358\FILE_SHARE. Scans sent to \\PHYSICS\DROPBOX may be found in the directory /home/ftp/dropbox on our unix/linux systems, after a few minutes. Any files not collected will be deleted after 3-4 days.

You can check the status of your scan job by hitting the “Job Status” button, then selecting “Log” and “Scan” in the on-screen menu.
