White Paper: Canon imageRUNNER/imagePRESS Security
Advanced Access Control
*
Canon imageRUNNER/imagePRESS devices support a number of advanced access control
options to help you manage their use and restrict unauthorized users. These options provide a
range of features to help manage Authentication, Authorization, and Auditing.
Authentication options include support for proximity cards, PIN codes as well as smart cards.
In the area of Authorization, Canon offers solutions that can lock down the entire device, or
simply lock down specific functions (ex. Send-to-Email), while leaving other applications
available for general use. These solutions can log activity like copying, printing, faxing,
scanning, and email, to provide you with the Auditing information you need to track usage
down to the individual user level.
With the power and flexibility of MEAP, many of these authentication solutions can be
customized to meet your specific requirements.
Control Cards/Card Reader System
*
Canon imageRUNNER/imagePRESS devices offer support for an optional Control Card/Card
Reader system for device access and to manage usage. The Control Card/Card Reader System
option requires the use of intelligent cards that must be inserted in the system before granting
access to functions, which automates the process of Department ID authentication. The
optional Control Card/Card Reader system manages populations of up to 300 departments or
users.
Password-Protected System Settings
As a standard feature, imageRUNNER/imagePRESS device setup screens support password
protection to restrict device setting changes from the control panel and Remote UI tool. When a
device administrator uses the System Settings menu, they can set network information, system
configuration, enable, and disable network and printing protocols among many other options. Canon
highly recommends setting an administrator password at time of installation since it controls critical
device settings.
