ENWW Using the Embedded Web Server 119
The Certificates page provides the status of the certificates
installed on the HP Jetdirect print server:
● Jetdirect certificate. The Jetdirect certificate is used to
validate the identity of the Jetdirect device to clients and to
network authentication servers.
By factory default, a self-signed Jetdirect certificate is
preinstalled. This allows the embedded Web server to
immediately use HTTPS and appear as a secure site when
accessed from your Web browser.
Click View to view the contents of an installed Jetdirect
certificate, or click Configure to update or install a new one. See
Configuring Certificates
.
When installed, a Jetdirect certificate will be saved across a
cold-reset, which is used to restore the print server to
factory-default values.
● CA Certificate. A certificate from a trusted third party, or
Certificate Authority (CA), is used to validate the identity of a
network authentication server during selected authentication
methods that use EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol). The
authentication server’s identity is validated when information on
the CA certificate matches the information on a certificate
received from the authentication server.
A CA certificate for the print server is a certificate that was used
to sign the authentication server’s certificate. Therefore, the
Certificate Authority for the authentication server’s certificate
must also be used for the CA certificate.

A CA certificate is not saved when the print server is reset to
factory-default values.
The maximum certificate size that can be installed on the HP
Jetdirect print server is 3072 bytes.
