Securing access to the application

For information on the Embedded Solutions Framework (eSF) version installed on your printer, see the help information documentation.

For eSF version 5.0 or later

1. From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Login Methods.

2. From the Additional Login Methods section, click Manage Permissions beside either Cloud Authentication or Card Authentication.

3. Click All Users.

For eSF version 4.0 or earlier

1. From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings or Configuration.

2. Do the following:

   Create a security template

   A security template is composed of security building blocks, such as Internal Accounts, Kerberos, LDAP, LDAP+GSSAPI, and Active Directory. These templates are applied to the access control to secure printer functions and applications.

   1. Depending on your printer model, do either of the following:

      • Click Security > Security Setup > Security Template > Add a Security Template.

      • Click Security > Edit Security Setups > Security Templates > Add a Security Template.

   2. Type a security template name, and then select one of the following authentication setups:

      • For printer-based authentication on a standalone setup, select an internal account building block.

      • For printer-based authentication with Lexmark Print Management (LPM) Serverless Print Release on an Active Directory setup, select an LDAP+GSSAPI building block.

      • For LDAP authentication, select an LDAP building block.

   3. Click Save Template.

   Configure the access controls

   1. Depending on your printer model, do either of the following:

      • Click Security > Security Setup > Access Controls.

      • Click Security > Edit Security Setups > Access Controls.

   2. Click Device Apps or Device Solutions, and then do the following:

      • Set App 1 or Solution 1 to an internal account or LDAP+GSSAPI or Active Directory security template.

      • Set App 2 or Solution 2 to the application security template.

        Note: The application security template is the template with CardAuth or CloudAuth as the authentication setup. For more information, see Create a security template.

      • Set App 3 or Solution 3 to an LDAP security template.

      Notes:

      • If LPM Print Release is installed, then set the Print Release access control to the application security template.
      • For eSF version 2.x printers, use the eSF Security Manager application to configure access control.
