User Authentication
Using the user authentication function of the printer, it is possible to create and manage up to 18 user accounts
secured with a password. Each user of the accounts can customize the home screen and save the changes.
For the Dell™ Cloud Multifunction Printer | H815dw only, it is also possible to associate NFC (Near Field
Communication) capable ID Cards to an user account. When the ID card is associated with a user account, you can
login to that user account by waving the ID card over the NFC reader.
For the Dell Smart Multifunction Printer | S2815dn only, it is also possible to select the user authentication method
from either local authentication or remote authentication. To use the remote authentication method, the LDAP or
Kerberos server is required to authenticate the user. To select the user authentication method, see "Desktop Login"
or "Desktop Authentication."
NOTE:
The Dell Cloud Multifunction Printer | H815dw supports the following card types:
• MIFARE Ultralight
• MIFARE Standard (Classic) 1K
• MIFARE Standard (Classic) 4K

The images used in this manual are those of the Dell Cloud Multifunction Printer | H815dw unless otherwise mentioned.
