Configuring an LDAP Authentication System

Before using LDAP servers for authentication, configure the settings in CentreWare Internet Services. To
use an LDAP server, see Properties>Protocols in CentreWare Internet Services.
Note: The Authentication System is an extra authentication option that is used only when searching
the Network Address Book from the printer control panel. First, the printer authenticates using the

book.
