SSL Data Encryption for HTTP Communication
This feature is not supported on the model available in China.
Enabling SSL/TLS server communication allows you to encrypt HTTP communication
between the printer and clients over a network.
There are two ports that support HTTP communication: internet service port and IPP port.
This feature allows you to encrypt information exchanged between the printer and
CentreWare Internet Services and print data sent to the printer using an IPP port.
To encrypt data transmission, you must use SSL/TLS protocol. To decode encrypted data,
a certificate for SSL/TLS is required.
A certificate can be created using CentreWare Internet Services.
To Enable Data Encryption
The following explains how to create a certificate on CentreWare Internet Services and set
various settings required to enable data encryption. For more information, refer to the online
help provided for CentreWare Internet Services.
1. Launch your web browser and access CentreWare Internet Services.
Note
• For information on how to access CentreWare Internet Services, refer to "Configuring the Printer Using
CentreWare Internet Services" (P. 28).
2. Click the [Properties] tab.
3. From the menu displayed on the left, click [SSL/TLS Server Communication] under
[Security].
The [SSL/TLS Server Communication] page is displayed.
