  5. When user authenticates on terminal and enters Scan menu on device, he just selects created SMB folder and performs scan. Scans will be delivered to this folder, and after logging out from Terminal Pro 4, scan files will be delivered to target destination according to configuration in used scan workflow.

    SMB folder must be equal to Triggered hot folder for used scan workflow.
