By enabling authentication at this level (by selecting this tab), the user is enabling
authentication at a global level. This authentication procedure will be used for all
devices. The user does also have the option of enabling authentication at the group
level.
These settings do not control authentication to the MFP, they are used for
authentication with AutoStore.

Click the Authentication tab.

On the drop down menu for Authentication Type, select the authentication method you want to use:
Option |
Description |
None |
Select this option to not have the device prompt for credentials. All
users have access to all workflows. |
Windows |
Select this option to use Windows authentication. Unless the device is
setup for SSO, this will prompt the user for a Windows user name, domain and
password. In the Domain box, enter the name of a Windows
domain to be used as the default domain for authentication. If attributes other
than email address are needed, see LDAP Lookup Settings dialog box on how to setup
LDAP. |
Custom Script
|
The administrator has full control over the prompts that will be presented
to the user as well as how the prompts are validated. In the Script
File Path box, specify the script to be used for
authentication.This option can be used with device SSO. For more details, see
Custom Scripting authentication. |
Note:
LDAP may be used for authentication of lookup data.
If a device is setup with SSO, AutoStore attempts to use that data to
authenticate. If it fails, the user needs to fill in additional fields to
complete the authentication process.
