Before you set up the EX/i Print Server, it is strongly recommended that you review all of the

system requirements.

Levels of access and control

When you configure the EX/i Print Server during Setup, you implement a particular level of
control by configuring these elements:

• Users and Groups

• Print connections
• Access to WebTools
Users and Groups
With Configure, you create users, assign passwords to users, create groups with specific
privileges, and assign users to the groups. Several groups are provided by default, and you can
create new groups. All users in a group have the same privileges.
In addition to assigning the users that you have created to a group, you can add users from
your organization's global address list if you enable LDAP services on the EX/i Print Server.
The following discussion is an overview designed to help you prepare a security strategy. For
more information, including specific procedures, see Configure Help.
You can view detailed information about users and groups that you have created from
Configure in Command WorkStation. For more information, see Command WorkStation
Help.
User authentication
The term "user authentication" means the EX/i Print Server verifies that the user who is
sending a job belongs to a group, and the group has printing privileges ("Print in B&W" or
"Print in Color and B&W").
By default, the EX/i Print Server does not enforce user authentication. That is, even if you
assign passwords to users and assign users to groups, no authentication occurs unless you clear
the "Allow users to print without authentication" option (in Configure > Users and Groups).
If this option is selected, anyone can print to the EX/i Print Server.
You cannot enable EX/i Print Server authentication and printer authentication at the
