User Authentication
This function restricts use of the machine to authenticated users. When the
function is activated, all users must log in by entering a login name and
password, or a user number, in order to use the machine.
To set up this function, the administrator must:
1. Select the login method. You can select login by login name and password,
or login by user number.
2. Store login names and passwords, or user numbers, depending on the
login method selected above, and notify each user of their login information.
3. Activate the user authentication function.
The above tasks can be performed in the machine’s Web page, or using the
machine’s operation panel. The procedures for both methods are described
on the following pages.
User authentication by LDAP server

user authentication, use the Web page to configure settings.

2. Select LDAP under Network Settings in the menu frame and configure
your LDAP server information (see page 123).
3. In the Web page, follow the procedures on the following pages to set the
login method to Login Name and Password, store users (select Network
Authentication when you store each user), and activate user
authentication.
