Question,
I have an account in a large health care operation that would like to scan documents to the hard drive and retrieve them via (IP)smart web monitor.
The only potential problem is that anyone could potentially view the document if they know the IP address and the employees cannot be relied upon to always give the document a password.
OK, so here's the question.
Can the 2035sp be programmed to require a password before it will allow the scan to hard drive?
This is a HIPPA compliance issue according to their IT Manager. The feature is perfect for some of their data archiving, does not require them to add additional software and could mean additional placements.
Any thoughts?

Individual documents can be password protected on scan, but I don't know if you can view them from the web interface once they have been password protected. Why would a health care organization be storing sensitive docs like that on the document server when it is intended to store more generic forms etc...? I would think that they would rather scan them to files.

Graham,
They don't want to store them on document server, they only want to place them there temporarily so that they can retrieve them back to a computer and store them to file or cd, then delete those files.
That process would require no software install such as Scan Router does.
I believe you can view them and retrieve them even if they are password protected as long as you have the password. The main question is "can the 2035 be set (defaulted)to require a password for each scan before it will let you proceed to store the document"?
I don't think you can set it to default to require a password....Why not just use scan to email?? That doesn't require any software install like scan router does? Seems like doing it the way they want to do would be somewhat cumbersome, and besides that, off the top of my head, I believe that you would have to sell them DTB pro to properly retrieve the documents and convert them out of the copier file format to PDF files.
Maybe, there is a better hardware config here. Why not propose the 2022SP? Propose it just as a scanning solution, then you can scan directly to the folder with out the need of Scan Router. No, passwords are then needed at the copier because the file has benn sent to the PC that is pass code protected. Then you are within the HIPPA comnpliance.

2022SP is $7,195 retail. To me thats les that $140 a month for a scanner solutiona nd I believe the 2022SP scans at 36ipm. Is that right. If you also need a beefier printer configure the deal with an additional AP4510.

What do ou think John?
