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 on page 192.
• Ensure that Network Authentication is enabled. For details, refer to Configuring Secure
Settings.
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 186.
3. Click Permissions.
4. Click Login/Logout Settings.
5. For Network, click Edit.

7. Configure the authentication system. For details, refer to Configuring an LDAP Authentication
System on page 190.
Configuring an LDAP Authentication System
Before using LDAP servers for authentication, configure the settings in the Embedded Web Server.
To configure an LDAP system:
