10.7 How to Install Certificates on a Windows Client
Why do I need
Certificates on the
Client?
The following cases require a certificate on the client:
• If, during the transfer of print data, an encrypted connection
between the client and the print server is additionally secured by
means of an authentication.
• If the administrative access to the Print Server Homepage is
protected via SSL (HTTPs).
URLs that require an SSL connection start with ’https’. During a
so-called ’handshake’, the client asks the SSL server via browser for a
CA certificate.
If a certificate is unknown to the Windows client, the certificate is
not classed as 'trusted'. In this case, you will get an error message.
Install the certificate on the Windows client using a browser in order
to make the certificate known to the client.
Example One method using the 'Internet Explorer 7' is described in the
following.
Proceed as follows:
1. Establish a safe connection to your PRINTSERVER Homepage. To
do this, enter 'https://' and the IP address of the print server
into the address box of your browser.
(e.g. https://192.168.0.191). A security alert appears.
