Technical information
- You can send file attachments of up to 50 MB. However, email inboxes generally do not accept files exceeding 20 MB.
- You can connect all USB sticks compatible with Windows as well as 2.5 inch hard drives (smaller than 500 GB) that do not have an additional power supply.
- Unfortunately, 2.5 inch hard drives from 500 GB and devices with their own power supply (e.g. 3.5 inch hard drives) cannot be connected to the scanner. There is a risk of data loss if these media are used.
