Common access card (CAC)
authentication
The common access card (CAC) authentication is part of a Department of Defense
initiative to increase the security of its facilities and critical information through the use
of smart identification cards. Eventually all department employees will use CAC cards
to gain access to computers, networks, and buildings. In many cases, the department is
requesting that same level of authentication at the printer level as well. When enabled
on the printer, Department of Defense employees need to use their CAC card to access
the machine to scan or copy documents, providing greater security and management
of their machines.
Xerox CAC Enablement software supports a number of card readers and allows users to
authenticate at the machine. The card is connected to a USB port on the printer.
Refer to the Xerox Smart Card Installation Guide for a comprehensive explanation of
how to install and configure the Smart Card solution.
Note
If the device is configured to use Network Accounting, it will need to be disabled in order
to use CAC. For details, see Network Accounting (Job Based Accounting).
