Using Kerberos authentication If a user logs on at a printer using Kerberos, the credentials can be used by the LDD system to manipulate files on the network and interact with ECM systems on behalf of the user. Notes: • SSL is required to use Kerberos authentication with an LDD system, and secure communication between printers and servers must be enabled for any device group that uses a solution with Kerberos authentication. For more information, see "Enabling secure communication between servers and the printers in a device group" on page 96. • The date and time must be correct on the printer, LDD server, and KDC server when using Kerberos authentication. Configuring Kerberos authentication on printers Notes: • The procedure below refers to e-Task 2+ printers. If these steps do not apply to your printer, see the documentation that came with the printer. • The names and locations of some links differ depending on the firmware installed on your printer. Where multiple link names or locations are specified below, click the specified link that appears for your printer.

Using Kerberos authentication
If a user logs on at a printer using Kerberos, the credentials can be used by the LDD system to manipulate files on
the network and interact with ECM systems on behalf of the user.
Notes:
•
SSL is required to use Kerberos authentication with an LDD system, and secure communication between printers
and servers must be enabled for any device group that uses a solution with Kerberos authentication. For more
information, see “Enabling secure communication between servers and the printers in a device group” on
page 96.
•
The date and time must be correct on the printer, LDD server, and KDC server when using Kerberos
authentication.
