Page 13: Security
Security MFD Function Enabling Check the boxes for Functions that require a validated CAC Card for use. If a box is un-checked the Function will always be allowed. For example: If you want the MFD Scan-to-Folder Function to only be available when a validated CAC Card is installed, check the CAC Enable Scan-To- Folder box.
Page 14 Hold Print If enabled, Print jobs will be held in the CACStar until the user is authenticated at the printer by inserting their CAC card. After authentication, the user’s jobs will be printed. CAC Print Server Set this to the IP address of the Secure Print server. Server Print Only If enabled, print jobs will only be allowed from the configured CAC Print Server.

Page 18 Basic This includes PIN validation, card expiration check, and X.509 card certificate validation. If an NTP server is not configured on the LAN Side Configuration page, the expiration check is bypassed. The Basic level of authentication is always included and cannot be removed from the configuration.
