Functions that Enhance Printer Security

Epson printers have a variety of security technologies. Set the printer as necessary according to the environmental
conditions that have been built with the customer's environment information. See the manual for details on the
settings.
Name
SSL/TLS
communications
Control of protocol
IPsec/IP filtering
IEEE802.1X
Note:
WSD printing is enabled by default. We recommend disabling WSD printing when performing authenticated printing.
You can disable WSD by managing the protocols. See the manual for details on the settings.

User Information Recorded in the Printer

The user information recorded in the printer and the method to delete it are as follows.
Feature type
The communication content
is encrypted with SSL/TLS
communications when
accessing to the Epson server
on the Internet from the
printer, such as
communicating to the
computer via web browser,
using Epson Connect, and
updating firmware.
Controls the protocols and
services to be used for
communication between
printers and computers, and
it enables and disables
features.
You can set to allow severing
and cutting off of data that is
from a certain client or is a
particular type. Since IPsec
protects the data by IP packet
unit (encryption and
authentication), you can
safely communicate
unsecured protocol.
Allows only a user who is
authenticated to Wi-Fi and
Ethernet to connect. Allows
only a permitted user to use
the printer.
Appendix
What to set
Obtain a CA-signed
certificate, and then import it
to the printer.
A protocol or service that is
applied to features allowed or
prohibited separately.
Create a basic policy and
individual policy to set the
client or type of data that can
access the printer.
Authentication setting to the
RADIUS server
(authentication sever).

What to prevent
Clearing an identification of
the printer by the CA-signed
certification prevents
impersonation and
unauthorized access. In
addition, communication
contents of SSL/TLS are
protected, and it prevents the
leakage of contents for
printing data and setup
information.
Reducing security risks that
may occur through
unintended use by
preventing users from using
unnecessary functions.
Protect unauthorized access,
and tampering and
interception of
communication data to the
printer.
Protect unauthorized access
and use to the printer.
