Configuring the Network Authentication

Network Authentication is a security protocol that requires users to provide their login credentials before

they can access the printer. The printer compares the user credentials to the information stored on an

authentication server.

To prove their identity, users can type their user credentials at the control panel, in the Embedded Web

Server, or they can use a card reader.

To configure access rights using network authentication:

Provide information about your authentication server and configure authentication server settings.

Enable Panel Lock. For details, refer to Managing Panel Lock.

Ensure that service locks are set. For details, refer to Setting Service Locks.

Ensure that Network Authentication is enabled. For details, refer to

Configuring Secure Settings

on

page 267.

To access the authentication system:
1.

At your computer, open a Web browser. In the address field, type the IP address of the printer, then

press

Enter or Return.

2.

In the Embedded Web Server, log in as a system administrator. For details, refer to

Logging In as

the Administrator

on page 265.
