Method and a system for managing storage of a scanned document

A system for managing storage of a scanned document in a Multi-Function Printer (MFP), the system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory, wherein the memory stores processor-executable instructions, which, on execution, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive a document and a request for scanning the document, using an MFP;
• determine one or more options for storing the document, based on one or more properties for scanning the document and based on a current capacity of a storage unit associated with the MFP, wherein each of the one or more options indicates an image file format for the document and at least one of a color mode or an image resolution for the document;
• provide the one or more options for receiving a selection from a user;
• and
• store the scanned version of the document in the storage unit, based on an option selected by the user from the one or more options.

A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon that when processed by at least one processor cause a device to perform a method comprising:

• receiving a document and a request for scanning the document, using an MFP;
• determining one or more options for storing the document, based on one or more properties for scanning the document and based on a current capacity of a storage unit associated with the MFP, wherein each of the one or more options indicates an image file format for the document and at least one of a color mode or an image resolution for the document;
• providing the one or more options for receiving a selection from a user;
• and
• storing the scanned version of the document in the storage unit, based on an option selected by the user from the one or more options.
