3. Configuring User Authentication
Settings: Disabled
• [Simple(All)]
The machine authenticates printer jobs and remote settings that have authentication information,
and cancels the jobs and settings that fail authentication.
Printer jobs and settings without authentication information are performed without being
authenticated.
• [Simple(Limitation)]
You can specify the range to apply [Simple(Limitation)] to by specifying [Parallel Interface(Sim.)],
3
[USB(Sim.)], and the client's IPv4 address.
Printer Job Types
1. In the PCL printer driver dialog box, the "User Authentication" and "Encrypt" check boxes are
selected. Personal authentication information is added to the printer job. The printer driver applies
advanced encryption to the login passwords. The printer driver encryption key enables driver
encryption and prevents the login password from being stolen.
For details about prohibiting the use of simple encryption using "Simple Encryption", see
"Specifying the Extended Security Functions".
2. In the PCL printer driver dialog box, the "User Authentication" and "Encrypt" check boxes are
selected. Personal authentication information is added to the printer job. The printer driver applies
simple encryption to login passwords.
For details about turning off "Simple Encryption" and allowing the use of simple encryption, see
"Specifying the Extended Security Functions".
3. In the PCL printer driver dialog box, the "User Authentication" check box is not selected. Personal
authentication information is added to the printer job and is disabled.
4. When using the PostScript 3 printer driver, the printer job contains user code information.
Personal authentication information is not added to the printer job but the user code information
is. This also applies to recovery/parallel printing using a PCL printer driver that does not support
authentication.
5. When using the PostScript 3 printer driver, the printer job does not contain user code information.
Neither personal authentication information nor user code information is added to the printer
job. This also applies to recovery/parallel printing using a PCL printer driver that does not support
authentication.
6. A printer job or PDF file is sent from a host computer without a printer driver and is printed via
LPR. Personal authentication information is not added to the printer job. The above is also true
for Mail to Print. For details about Mail to Print, see "Reception", Facsimile Reference.
7. A PDF file is printed via ftp. Personal authentication is performed using the user ID and password
used for logging on via ftp. However, the user ID and password are not encrypted.
