The device handles authentication and authorization using one or more of the following, also referred to as
building blocks
:
PIN or Panel PIN Protect
Password or Web Page Password Protect
Internal Accounts
LDAP
LDAP+GSSAPI
Kerberos 5 (used only with LDAP+GSSAPI and the Smart Card Authentication application)
Active Directory (available only in some printer models)
To provide simple security, use either PIN and Password, or Panel PIN Protect and Web Page Password Protect.
This type of security might be appropriate if a printer is located in a lobby or other public area of a business,
so that only employees who know the password and PIN are able to use the printer. Passwords and PINs are
considered less secure than other building blocks because they do not require a user to be identified or
authorized.
Note:
The device default settings do not contain any authentication or authorization building blocks, so
everyone has unrestricted access to the device.
