Securing the Printer in a High Security
Environment
If you are concerned about the security of your printer in a high security environment, such as
a college or printing kiosk, you can configure settings in CentreWare IS to "lockdown" or fully

need to set up a certificate and then configure SSL to encrypt data including passwords.

Web Pages check box.

unauthorized access through applications that use these protocols. For example, if you
want to use IPP for a secure printing channel, disable the other printing protocols,
Port 9100 and LPR. Disabling some protocols also disables some printer functions, such
as printer discovery and PrintingScout.
