Appendix 82 Internal accounts 1 Create groups, and then add users to the internal accounts. For more information, see "Setting up internal accounts" on page 11. 2 Create security templates, and then assign each function access controls to the appropriate security templates. For more information, see "Using a security template to control function access" on page 20. LDAP+GSSAPI On networks running Active Directory, you can use LDAP+GSSAPI to take advantage of authentication and authorization services already deployed on the network. User credentials and group designations can be pulled from your existing system, making access to the printer as seamless as other network services. Supported devices can store a maximum of five LDAP+GSSAPI configurations. Each configuration must have a unique name. For more information, see "Using LDAP+GSSAPI" on page 17. Note: Make sure to configure Kerberos before setting up LDAP+GSSAPI. For more information, see "Configuring Kerberos 5 for use with LDAP+GSSAPI" on page 19. Smart Card Authentication You can use the login screen settings to choose how users can log in to the printer. Users may be prompted for a PIN or a password after inserting a smart card. 1 From the Embedded Web Server, access the configuration page for the Smart Card Authentication Client application. 2 Under Login Screen, in the Login Type menu, select Smart Card Only. 3 Set User Validation Mode to Active Directory. 4 Click Apply. Note: For more information, see Smart Card Authentication Administrator's Guide. Understanding the home screen The screen located on the front of the printer is touch‑sensitive and can be used to access device functions and navigate settings and configuration menus. The home screen looks similar to this (yours may contain additional icons): Copy Release Held Faxes E-mail @ Search FTP Held Jobs Held jobs Status/ Supplies Ready.

LDAP+GSSAPI
On networks running Active Directory, you can use LDAP+GSSAPI to take advantage of authentication and
authorization services already deployed on the network. User credentials and group designations can be
pulled from your existing system, making access to the printer as seamless as other network services.
Supported devices can store a maximum of five LDAP+GSSAPI configurations. Each configuration must have
a unique name. For more information, see
“Using LDAP+GSSAPI” on page
17
