Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a protocol used to process queries and updates to an
LDAP information directory, on an external server. LDAP can also be used for network authentication and
authorization. LDAP directories are heavily optimized for read performance. Use this page to define how
the printer retrieves user information from an LDAP directory.
