Printer Job Authentication
This section explains the relationship between printer job authentication levels and printer job types.
Depending on the combination of printer job authentication level and printer job type, the machine may
not print properly. Set an appropriate combination according to the operating environment.
User authentication is supported by the PCL printer driver and the LAN-FAX driver.
When user authentication is disabled, printing is possible for all job types.
