Security Feature Settings
When setting IPsec/IP filtering or IEEE802.1X, it is recommended that you access Web Config using SSL/TLS to
communicate settings information in order to reduce security risks such as tampering or interception.
Make sure you configure the administrator password before setting IPsec/IP filtering or IEEE802.1X.
Also, you can use Web Config by connecting the printer directly to the computer using an Ethernet cable, and then
entering the IP address into a web browser. The printer can be connected in a secure environment after the security
settings have been completed.
Controlling Using Protocols
You can print using a variety of pathways and protocols.
If you are using a multi-function printer, you can use network scanning and PC-FAX from an unspecified number
of network computers.
You can lower unintended security risks by restricting printing from specific pathways or by controlling the
available functions.
