Create Certificate Request. Using this option, you are prompted for specific device and organizational
information in the following screen:
Certificate Information
This option may be used, for example, when an authentication protocol requires that a Jetdirect certificate
issued by a trusted third party or Certificate Authority be installed.
Install Certificate. This option is displayed only if there is a Jetdirect certificate request (to a trusted third
party) pending. When received, the certificate is installed using this option. Once installed, this certificate
overwrites the preinstalled certificate. Using this option, you are prompted for information in the following
screen:
Install Certificate
The certificate to be installed must be associated with a previous certificate request generated by the
embedded Web server.
Install CA Certificate. (Full-featured print servers only) This option is provided when you click Configure
for a CA certificate, which must be installed for selected authentication protocols. Using this option, you are
prompted for information in the following screen:
Install Certificate
Import Certificate and Private Key. This option allows you to import a previously acquired and known
certificate as the Jetdirect certificate. If you import a certificate, the currently installed certificate will be
overwritten. Using this option, you are prompted by the following screen:
Import Certificate and Private Key
Export Certificate and Private Key. This option allows you to export the Jetdirect certificate currently
installed on the print server for use on other print servers. Using this option, you are prompted by the
following screen:
Export the Jetdirect certificate and private key
Delete CA Certificate. (Full-featured print servers only) This option is used to remove the CA certificate
installed on the Jetdirect print server. This option appears when a CA certificate for EAP authentication has
been installed.
CAUTION
If the CA Certificate is deleted, EAP authentication will be disabled and network
access will be denied.
The CA Certificate will also be removed on a cold-reset of the print server, where factory-default
settings are restored.
This screen appears only when a self-signed certificate is pre-installed and you click Edit Settings to
update the validity period. It specifies the current Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). UTC is a time scale
maintained by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. It adjusts for differences between
Greenwich Mean Time and atomic time. It is set at 0 degrees longitude on the prime meridian.
The Validity Start Date is calculated from the PC's clock settings.
The Validity Period specifies the number of days (1 to 3650) that the certificate is valid, starting from the
Validity Start Date. A valid entry (1 to 3650) is required. The default is 5 years.
Common Name. (Required) For HP Jetdirect print servers, specify the fully qualified domain name or a
valid IP address for the device.
