Configuring Network Authentication (by a Remote Accounting server)
Network authentication uses the user information managed on a remote Accounting server to manage
authentication (access) to available machine services.
Enable Network Authentication
To enable Network Authentication for use with this Device, at your networked workstation, perform the
following steps:
1. Open your Web browser and enter the TCP/IP address of the machine in the Address or Location field.
Press Enter.
2. Click the Properties tab.
3. Select the Security folder, then the Authentication Configuration hot link.
4. Select Login to Remote Accounts from the Login Type drop-down list, then Network Accounting
from the Accounting Mode drop-down list.
5. Place a checkmark in the Enable box for each service that you wish to restrict access to. For
explanations of each service, click the Help button.
6. Do not place a checkmark in the Non-account Print box if you wish to enable people without accounts
to continue to print.
7. From the Verify User Details drop-down menu, select either Yes or No (keep logon records). The
Yes selection will verify user information. When No (keep logon records) is selected, User ID and
Account ID must be entered at the Device, but user information will not be checked. A logon record
will be kept by the Device, however.
8. If a Guest User box is available and configurable, consider whether it is advisable in your network
environment to allow simple password, guest access to this restricted service device. The default
setting is Off.
9. If you wish to allow guest access, enter your guest password twice in the boxes provided.
10. Click Apply and enter the Administrator User name and password when prompted.
11. Click the Reboot Machine button, then OK, when prompted.
12. Refresh your web browser, then click on the User Details Setup link to set the Store User Details
setting. Note that you can set either NVM or hard disk as the destination for saved authentication
information. User Details Setup also allows you to configure the characteristics of the login prompt for
User Authentication.
