Configuring PKI-enabled devices

Overview

This guide describes how to install Lexmark PKI applications, and configure supported Lexmark devices to take
advantage of the enhanced security features of the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) capabilities of your network. The
applications include:
PKI Authentication—Provides the mechanism for authenticating and authorizing printer users.
PKI S/MIME Email—Enables users to sign and encrypt E-mail messages.
PKI Scan to Network—Enables users to scan documents to a network file share.
PKI Held Jobs—Holds print jobs securely at the printer until released by an authorized user. Also referred to as
Print Release Lite.
PKI Authentication is the only required application, and must be installed and configured if you plan to attach a
SmartCard reader to the printer.
This guide is intended for use by Lexmark service providers, and network administrators responsible for the
management of security appliances and software in their network environment.
For information about physically setting up the printer or using printer features, see the User Guide or Software and
Documentation CD that came with the printer.
