3.3. System Accounts
3.3.1. Printing [Multifunction models only]
The device may be set up to connect to a print queue maintained on a remote print server. The login
name and password are sent to the print server in clear text. IPSec should be used to secure this channel.
3.3.2. Network Scanning [Multifunction models only]
Network Scanning may require the device to log into a server. The instances where the device logs into a
server are detailed in the following table. Users may also need to authenticate for scanning. This
authentication is detailed in subsequent sections.
3.3.2.1. Device log on
Scanning feature Device behavior
Scan to Network The device logs in to the scan repository as set up by the SA via CWIS.
Scan to E-mail
The device logs into an SMTP Server as set up by the SA via CWIS. It will
only log into the Server when a user attempts to use the scan-to-email
feature. At the time the LDAP server must be accessed, the device will
log into the LDAP server.
The device uses simple authentication on the SMTP server. A network
username and password must be assigned to the device. The device
logs in as a normal user, with read only privileges. User credentials are
not used for this authentication step, and are never transmitted over the
network.
Table 8 Device Log On for Scanning Features
Please note that when the device logs into any server the device username and password are sent over
the network in clear text unless SSL has been enabled or IPSec has been configured to encrypt the traffic.
3.4. Diagnostics
To access onboard diagnostics from the local user interface, Xerox service representatives must enter a
unique 4-digit password. This PIN is the same for all product configurations and cannot be changed.
