Windows Authentication
Specify this authentication when using the Windows domain controller to au-
thenticate users who have their accounts on the directory server. Users cannot
be authenticated if they do not have their accounts in the directory server. Under
Windows authentication, you can specify the access limit for each group regis-
tered in the directory server. The address book stored in the directory server can
be registered to the machine, enabling user authentication without first using the
machine to register individual settings in the address book. If you can obtain
user information, the sender’s address (From:) is fixed to prevent unauthorized
access when sending e-mails under the scanner function.
Important
❒ During Windows Authentication, data registered in the directory server, such
as the user’s e-mail address, is automatically registered in the machine. If user
information on the server is changed, information registered in the machine
may be overwritten when authentication is performed.
❖ Operational Requirements for Windows Authentication
• To specify Windows authentication, the following requirements must be
met:
• The Printer/Scanner unit must be installed.
• A domain controller has been set up in a designated domain.
• This function is supported by the operating systems listed below. NTLM
authentication is used for Windows authentication. To obtain user infor-
mation when running Active Directory, use LDAP. If SSL is being used,
this requires a version of Windows that supports TLS v1, SSL v2, or SSL v3.
• Windows NT 4.0 Server
• Windows 2000 Server
• Windows Server 2003
Limitation
❒ Users managed in other domains are subject to user authentication, but they
cannot obtain items such as e-mail addresses.
❒ If you have created a new user in the domain controller and selected [User
must change password at next logon], log on to the machine from the computer
to change the password before logging on from the machine’s control panel.
❒ If the machine has Printer Controller RW-3600 installed, it will not accept the
Windows Authentication under the printer function. However, you can com-
plete Windows Authentication when using the scanner function through the
Printer Controller RW-3600 and Printer Option Type W3600.
❒ For details about Windows Authentication methods using Printer Controller
RW-3600, refer to the Printer Controller RW-3600 user manual.
