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 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.
• Ensure that service locks are set.
• 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 at the Control Panel.
3. Click Permissions.
4. Click Login/Logout Settings.
5. For Network, click Edit.
6. For Network Login, select Kerberos, SMB, or LDAP, then click Next.
7. Configure the LDAP server, authentication, and custom filter settings. For details, refer to the
configuration topic for your authentication system.
