Configuring User Authentication - Ricoh MP C6502 series Operation Manual

Configuring User Authentication

There are five types of user authentication methods: User Code authentication, Basic authentication,
Windows authentication, LDAP authentication, and Integration Server authentication. To use user
authentication, select an authentication method on the control panel, and then make the required
settings for the authentication. The settings depend on the authentication method. Specify administrator
authentication, and then specify user authentication.
• If user authentication is not possible because of a problem with the hard disk or network, you can
use the machine by accessing it using administrator authentication and disabling user
authentication. Do this if, for instance, you need to use the machine urgently.
• You cannot use more than one authentication method at the same time.

Authentication is applied to each user code, not to each user.
It is necessary to register the user code in the machine's address
book in advance.
