Authentication/Security Settings

Types of authentication

Three types of authentication are used depending on where user information is stored:
• Local Machine Authentication: Uses the user information registered for the Account
Administration feature to manage authentication. You need, therefore, to enable
the Account Administration feature when you use Local Machine Authentication.
The print data sent directly from a computer can be received on the machine after
being authenticated by cross-checking the authentication information pre-configured
on a client's print driver with the one registered on the machine.
• Remote Authentication: Uses a remote authentication server to manage
authentication. User information is not registered on the machine.
NOTE
A registered user ID on the remote authentication server can be a maximum of 32
characters, and the password a maximum of 128 characters. For SMB authentication,
however, the password can be a maximum of 32 characters.
• Xerox Secure Access: A system that uses a magnetic-card, IC-card, and biometrics
systems for authentication. If prompted, users must enter their user information on
the machine's control panel.
