Getting Started; Before Using The Security Functions - Ricoh PRO C900 Operating Instructions Manual

1. Getting Started

This chapter describes the machine's security features and how to specify initial security settings.

Before Using the Security Functions

• If security settings are not made, there is a risk of damage resulting from malicious activity. For this
reason, be sure to make the security settings shown in this manual.
This machine features a user authentication function that, when activated, prevents users without a login
username and password from using this machine or accessing it over a network. If user authentication is
activated, users must enter a login user name and password to use this machine or access it over a network.
There are five types of user authentication methods: User Code authentication, Basic authentication,
Windows authentication, LDAP authentication, and Integration Server authentication. If an application that
enables use of extended features is installed on the machine, you can limit the extended features available
under each user code by specifying Basic authentication, Windows authentication, LDAP authentication,
or Integration Server authentication. If you specify Basic authentication, Windows authentication, LDAP
authentication, or Integration Server authentication, you cannot apply authentication to control access to
print jobs.
• For details about applications that enable use of extended features, contact your sales or service
representative.
