User Database
The user database stores user credential information. The printer uses this information for local
authentication and authorization, and for Xerox
®
Standard Accounting. When you configure local
authentication, the printer checks the credentials that a user provides against the information in the user
database. When you configure local authorization, the printer checks the user database to determine
which features the user is allowed to access.
Note:
User names and passwords stored in the user database are not transmitted over the network.
