7. Authentication & Auditron Administration

Overview of Auditron Administration

This section describes an overview of the Auditron Administration 

features that can be used with the machine.

Authentication and Auditron Administration

The machine uses the Auditron Administration feature together 

with the Authentication feature.

There are two ways to authenticate by UserID:

Using Authentication on

this machine

The Auditron administration is carried out using the authenticated 

users already registered on the machine. Also, for print data sent 

directly from a computer, the authentication information set in the 

client side driver is checked against the authentication information 

registered on the machine before the data is accepted on the 

machine.

Using Network

Authentication

Auditron administration is carried out using user information 

managed by the remote accounting service.

User information managed by the remote accounting service is 

sent to the machine from the remote accounting service, and 

registered on the machine. When the user information managed 

by the remote accounting service is updated, the user information 

must be sent from the remote accounting service to the machine.

Network authentication allows a number of machines to use user 

information managed centrally.

External accounting services supported by the machine include 

CentreWare.

Using Remote

Authentication

Verifies remote accounting server. Can be used to manage 

information on the remote accounting server. User information 

cannot be registered on the machine.

KEY POINT:

Set the user ID for the remote authentication server 

with less than 32 characters.
