Specifying the Authorized Send Settings

You can specify the Authorized Send settings on the Remote UI only.

IMPORTANT
Specifying the Authorized Send settings is available only when the Remote UI is in the System Manager Mode.

Click [Add.Func.] → [Send Function Authentication Settings] in the [Add.Func.] menu.

The Send Function Authentication Settings page is displayed.

Specify the necessary settings → click [OK].

The setting descriptions are as follows:

	Display authentication screen when operation to send is started:	Select this check box to activate Authorized Send and authenticate users who send documents from the machine. To enable the settings in the Send Function Authentication Settings page, this check box must be selected.
	Display confirm screen when logged out:	Select this check box to display the confirmation screen when a user logs out of Authorized Send. The log out options are [Send] and [Device]. (Sending Documents) [Send]: Logs out of Authorized Send only. [Device]: Simultaneously logs out of other security features such as Department ID Management.

IMPORTANT:

The confirmation screen appears only if the machine is locked with security features such as Department ID Management. If the machine is locked with security features and [Display confirm screen when logged out] is not selected, the machine works as if [Device] is pressed when the user logs out of Authorized Send.

Press [Register] and specify the authentication server settings in the machine, according to the server used. Up to five authentication servers can be registered. To change or delete the registered server settings, select the desired server name and press [Edit] or [Delete].

	Server Name:	Enter the name of the authentication server.
	Server Address:	Specify the IP address or DNS name of the authentication server. If log in to an authentication server uses the Kerberos authentication method, the DNS name needs to be in a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) format.
	Location to Start Search:	Specify the location of the directory tree to start searching for user entries.
	Port Number:	Specify the port number for accessing the authentication server. The default port number is ‘389’ (non-TLS) or ‘636’ (TLS).
	Attribute of User Name:	Specify the user attribute name such as ‘sAMAccountName’ and ‘uid’. The specified attribute is used to validate the user name entered when the user logs in to Authorized Send.
	Attribute of E-mail Address:	Specify the mail attribute name such as ‘mail’. The specified attribute is used to obtain the currently logged on user’s e-mail address from the authentication server. The obtained address is specified as destination when the user presses [Send Mail To Self]. (Sending Documents)
	Login Information:	Specify the authentication method used when the machine communicates with the authentication server. Select [Use] to use the Simple authentication method, or [Use (Security Authentication)] to use the Kerberos authentication method. The Kerberos authentication method is available for Active Directory.
	Domain Name:	If you select [Use (Security Authentication)] for <Login Information>, enter the directory tree name of the Active Directory, such as <team1.salesdept.canon.co.jp>.
	Use System Manager ID:	This setting is available only when [Use] is selected from [Login Information] as the authentication method. Select this check box to use the administrator’s ID and password for the authentication server when performing the first bind of the simple binding process. If you use anonymous binding, deselect this check box.
	User Name:	This text box is available only when [Use System Manager ID] is selected. Enter the administrator’s user name.
	Password:	This text box is available only when [Use System Manager ID] is selected. Enter the administrator’s login password.
	Use TLS:	This setting is available only when [Use] is selected from [Login Information] as the authentication method. Select this check box to use the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol when the machine communicates with the authentication server. If you select this check box, the value for <Port Number> automatically changes to ‘636’.

IMPORTANT:

For your network server settings, consult your network administrator.

<Location to Start Search> can be left blank. In this case, the value of the defaultNamingContext attribute is retrieved and used as the location of the directory tree to start searching. When no value is available, the attribute value with the shortest length in the namingContexts attributes is selected instead. If this fails, <Location to Start Search> is left blank.

<Attribute of User Name> cannot be specified when the Kerberos authentication method is selected in <Login Information>. If this method is selected or <Attribute of User Name> is left blank, ‘sAMAccountName’ is automatically used as the user attribute name.

If <Attribute of E-mail Address> is left blank, ‘mail’ is automatically used as the mail attribute name.

Press [Register] and specify the search server settings in the machine, according to the server used. Up to five search servers can be registered. To change or delete the registered server settings, select the desired server name and press [Edit] or [Delete].

Authentication Method:

This setting is available only when Authorized Send is activated.

If not, select [Use device-specific authentication information].

IMPORTANT:

For your network server settings, consult your network administrator.

Authentication/Attribute Retrieval Timeout:

[Only allow sending to own address or specified folder]: Restricts the destination of sending documents to the folder of a logged on user or to the specified folder. If Active Directory is used as an authentication server, the home directory (folder) of a logged on user is used as the destination. If not, or you want to manually specify the destination folder, select [Specify destination folder], then enter the name of the file server and the folder name in [File Server] and [Folder Path]. Selecting [Add user name] enables you to use the user name of a logged on user to specify the destination of sending documents under the specified folder.

For instructions on how to send documents to the folder of a logged on user, see Sending Documents.

Specify LDAP authentication user address as the sender name:

Select this check box to use the e-mail address of a logged on user as the sender information when sending e-mails or I-faxes. The e-mail address is displayed or printed as the sender information at the recipient’s machine, instead of the unit name. (Introduction to Send and Fax Functions)
