Email lookup
When the printer uses LDAP for scan-to-email, it searches a database of email addresses.
When you enter the email address and click the
Search
button, LDAP searches a list of email addresses for
matching characters. You can refine the search results by typing additional characters and performing a new
search.
Printers that support LDAP also support the use of a standard outgoing email profile, so they do not require a
connection to an LDAP server in order to send email.
Information needed before starting
Ensure that you have this information before starting the configuration.

), and how the name will be displayed on the control panel (such as
displayName
)
