Securing an application or device function

To secure application and device functions on printers running eSF version 3.0 or later, use the security page on the
Embedded Web Server. For more information, see the Embedded Web Server Administrator's Guide.

Notes:

When using the security page on the Embedded Web Server to secure functions, you will be asked to set up a
building block first. However, since building blocks for authentication module applications are automatically
created, you do not need to set up a building block if you want to use the one that came with the application.

For more information on the eSF version that your printer supports, see

“Checking which version of the

Embedded Solutions Framework is installed on a printer” on page 6

.

To secure application functions on printers running eSF version 1.2 or 2.0, do the following:

1

Obtain the printer IP address from the printer home screen.

2

Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

3

From the navigation menu on the left, click Settings or Configuration.

4

Click Embedded Solutions > Application Access Manager > Configure.

5

Select the authentication module you want to use with an application function, and then click Apply.

Setting the session timeout

Application Access Manager has a session

‑based feature that lets users access multiple secured functions over a

specified period of time. You can set the session timeout to determine the amount of time the session can remain idle
before the user is automatically logged out.

1

From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings or Configuration.

2

Click Security > Miscellaneous Security Settings > Login Restrictions.

3

In the “Auto 'log out' delay” field or the “Panel Login Timeout” field, enter a value for the login session timeout on
the printer home screen.

Notes:

To access this feature on printers that support eSF version 1.0, you must install Background and Idle Screen
version 3.0 or later, and then set Idle Screen to Enabled.

To manually end your session, touch the Log Out button on the printer home screen.
