Printer Job Authentication
Printer job authentication is a function to enable user authentication to be applied to print jobs.
User authentication is supported by the PCL and PostScript3 drivers. The PostScript3 driver supports User
Code authentication only.
Printer Job Authentication Levels
The security level for "Entire" is the highest, followed by "Simple (Limitation)", and at the bottom, "Simple
(All)".
•
Entire
Select this to authenticate all print jobs and remote configuration.
The printer authenticates all printer jobs and remote settings, and it cancels jobs and settings that
fail authentication.
To print in an environment that does not support authentication, select [Simple (All)] or [Simple
(Limitation)].
• Simple (All)
Select this if you want to print with a printer driver or device that cannot be identified by the printer
or if authentication is not required for printing.
Printer jobs and settings without authentication information are performed without being
authenticated.
The printer authenticates printer jobs and remote settings that have authentication information, and
it cancels the jobs and settings that fail authentication.
Unauthorized users may be able to use the printer since printing is allowed without user
authentication.
• Simple (Limitation)
Select this to restrict the range of [Simple (All)].
You can specify whether to apply [Simple (All)] to parallel connection, USB connection, and the
user's IPv4 address. The range of application to IPv6 addresses can be configured from Web
Image Monitor.
The specified range can be printed regardless of the authentication. Authentication will be applied
to addresses outside this range.
Printer Job Types
Depending on the combination of printer job authentication level and printer job type, the printer may
not print properly. Set an appropriate combination according to the operating environment.
