• If you choose User Select in the scan quality, file type or file size, you must choose those settings from
the machine’s control panel.
• If you choose Secure PDF, the machine will ask you to enter a 4 digit password using numbers 0-9 before
it starts scanning.
• If you choose Signed PDF, you must install a certificate on your machine using Web Based Management.
Choose Signed PDF from Administrator in Web Based Management. (See Digital Certificate for Signed
PDF uu page 13).
• For information on PDF/A, Secure PDF and Signed PDF, see PDF file format uu page 24.
