Chapter 1    General Description
User Authentication
The User Authentication is a function to use devices under the management of a 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 login to the device using their Windows account (user name and password).

 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).
NOTE
NTLM authentication is a user authentication protocol used in the Windows NT family of operating 
systems.
NTLM uses a challenge/response method, and the password is encrypted when sending across the 
net work. In Windows 2000, this protocol can also be used to maintain compatibility between client 
and server.
The Job Tracking function allows the system administrator to receive a machine usage log, and send/receive log 
via Email.
The Email to the administrator includes the name of the device user, destination, and communication time, 
together with the image of the document that was sent or received.
