Printer Job Authentication Settings

Configure settings for processing printer jobs under each authentication method.

Note

• The setting configured here is for User Code Authentication, Basic Authentication, Windows Authentication, and LDAP Authentication.

Printer Job Authentication

Specify whether to print a job if the printer driver sending the job contains no authentication information (i.e. no user name or password).

Limitation Range (IPv4)

Enter a range for limiting unauthenticated print jobs from IPv4 addresses. You can set up to five ranges.
Any job sent from an IPv4 address within the range entered here is printed, regardless of whether or not it is authenticated. Any unauthenticated job sent from an IPv4 address outside the entered range is not printed.

Note

• This setting is only possible if Printer Job Authentication is set to Simple (Limitation).

Limitation Range (IPv6)

Enter a range for limiting unauthenticated print jobs from IPv6 addresses. Enter the range using a combination of start and end addresses, or a combination of base address and mask. You can set up to five ranges.
Any job sent from an IPv6 address within the range entered here is printed, regardless of whether or not it is authenticated. Any unauthenticated job sent from an IPv6 address outside the entered range is not printed.

Note

• Use one of the following procedures to specify the range:
  • Select Range, and then enter the start and end addresses.
  • Select Mask, enter the base address, and then enter the mask between 1 and 128 in the Mask Length.
• This setting is only possible if Printer Job Authentication is set to Simple (Limitation).
