Basic Authentication
Specify
this authentication method when using the printer's Address Book to authenticate each user. Using
Basic authentication, you cannot only manage the printer's available functions but also limit access to stored
files and to the personal data in the Address Book. Under Basic authentication, the administrator must
specify the functions available to each user registered in the Address Book.
To perform Basic Authentication, the optional hard disk must be installed.
Specifying Basic Authentication
This can be specified by the machine administrator.
For details about logging in and out with administrator authentication, see p.22 "Using Web Image
Monitor to Configure Administrator Authentication".
1. Log in to Web Image Monitor as an administrator.
2. Click [Configuration] in the Menu area.
3. Click [Administrator Authentication Management] in the "Device Settings" category.
4. Click [On] in the "User Administrator Authentication" area, and then click [OK].
5. Click
[User Authentication Management], and then select [Basic Authentication] in the "User
Authentication Management" list.
6. Select the "Printer Job Authentication" level.
If you select [Entire] or [Simple (All)], proceed to “Selecting Entire or Simple (All)”.
If you select [Simple (Limitation)], proceed to “Selecting Simple (Limitation)”.
For a description of the printer job authentication levels, see p.50 "Printer Job Authentication".
• [Parallel Interface (Simple)] menu only appears when the optional IEEE 1284 interface board is
installed.
Selecting Entire or Simple (All)
If you select [Entire], you cannot print using a printer driver or a device that does not support authentication.
To print under an environment that does not support authentication, select [Simple (All)] or [Simple
(Limitation)].
If
you select [Simple (All)], you can print even with unauthenticated printer drivers or devices. Specify this
setting if you want to print with a printer driver or device that cannot be identified by the printer or if you
do not require authentication for printing. However, note that, because the printer does not require
authentication in this case, it may be used by unauthorized users.
