Login to Remote Accounts
Uses a remote authentication server to manage authentication. User information is
not registered on the machine.
Note
A registered user ID on the remote authentication server can be a maximum of 32
characters, and the password a maximum of 128 characters. For SMB authentication,
however, the password can be a maximum of 32 characters.
Authentication Methods
The following authentication methods are available on the machine:
User ID Authentication
This method requires users to enter their user IDs and passcodes with the numeric
keypad or the touch screen of the machine UI. Authentication is performed with the
user information that is registered on the machine or on a remote server.
The user ID authentication method is available with both Authentication > Login
Type > Login to Local Accounts and with Authentication > Login Type > Login to
Remote Accounts .
• Login to Local Accounts: Authentication is managed by using the information
registered on the machine for each user. A print job sent directly from a computer
can be received on the machine after being authenticated by cross-checking the
authentication information on the client’s print driver with the information that is
registered on the machine.
• Login to Remote Accounts: Authentication is managed by a remote server, and
user information is not registered locally on the machine.
Smart Card Authentication
Authentication is performed using the smart card (Common Access Card / CAC).
Combination of Smart Card and User ID Authentication
Authentication is performed by obtaining the user ID card information and validating
it against the registered card information on the machine or remote server.
