General Description

User Authentication

The User Authentication works for the devices under the management of the Windows Server. As a result,

users must be authenticated before they can use the functions of the machine (copying, faxing, scanning, and

printing). The supported authentication protocol is NTLM v2.

Users

System administrator

The system administrator can manage user accounts by using the Windows Server.

User authentication can be set independently for each function (copying, faxing, scanning, and printing).

Users login to the Panasonic machine using their Windows account (user name and password).

NOTE

1. NTLM authentication is a user authentication protocol used in the Windows NT family of operating systems.

NTLM uses a challenge/response method, and operates in such a way that the password is not

sent across the network in clear text. In Windows 2000, this protocol can also be used to maintain compatibility between client and server.

2. This feature is available if the optional Network Scanner/Email/Internet Fax module (UE-404090) is installed.

together with the image of the document that was sent or received.
