SETTING MODE►SYSTEM SETTINGS Authentication Settings Default Settings This section describes the settings in [System Settings] → [Authentication Settings] → [Initial Settings] in "Settings (Administrator)". User Authentication This setting enables or disables user authentication and specifies the authentication method. When the user authentication is enabled, each user of the machine is registered. When a user logs in, the separate authentication settings apply to the user. This function allows greater control of security and cost management than that on previous machines. Even if user information is not stored on the machine, you can directly enter the user information stored in an LDAP server to log in the machine if necessary. In this case, the authentication information of the "User" being stored as factory default applies to the login user. For more information see "Users stored as factory default (page 9-41)". Factory default settings: Disable • For the procedure for storing users, see "User List (page 9-40)". • For details on login procedures when user authentication is enabled, see "USER AUTHENTICATION (page 8-12)". User Authentication When [User Authentication] is enabled, the authentication screen appears before an operation is carried out in any mode except the job status screen*. Log in as an already registered user. After logging in, you can move freely through the modes. * The login screen appears when a document filing file is used or when a broadcast transmission is reattempted from the job status screen. Authentication Settings Set the location where user authentication is to be enabled. Login Locally: User authentication is performed on this machine. LDAP: User authentication by LDAP server. Active Directory: User authentication by Active Directory. Sharp OSA: Authenticate the user using the Sharp OSA application. Factory default settings: Login Locally Default Network Authentication Server Setting Use this to set the default network authentication server. When you log into Setting mode (Web version) or send a print job to the machine using user information that is not registered in the machine, the authentication server is not known. This setting is used to select one of the LDAP servers registered in the machine as the authentication server. When login is performed by network authentication using user information that is not registered in the machine, the login user will be the "User" registered as factory default. For more information see "Users stored as factory default (page 9-41)". 9-122
