Securing the Printer in a High-Security

Environment

If you are concerned about the security of your printer in a high-security environment, such as a
college or printing kiosk, you can configure settings in the EWS to fully secure the printer. If you
are not concerned about the security of your printer, you may only need to set up a certificate and
then configure SSL to encrypt data including passwords.

To fully secure a printer:
1. In the EWS, set up a certificate. For details, see

Managing Certificates

on page 42.

2. Select when to use SSL, see

Configuring SSL

on page 43.

Note:

The following steps may be completed in any order.

3. Select the Administrator and Key User Settings. For details, see

Configuring Administrator

and Key User Settings

on page 44.

Note:

To prevent users from changing settings, clear the Modify Configuration Web Pages

check box. To prevent users from viewing settings, clear the View Configuration Web
Pages
check box.

4. Set up the Print Host Access List. For details, see

Configuring the Print Host Access List

on

page 45.

5. Set up the removal of Unprinted Personal, Secure, and Proof Print Jobs. For details, see

Selecting the Automatic Removal of Secure, Personal, and Proof Jobs Option

on page 47.

6. Select the Hard Drive Overwrite option. For details, see

Securing the Hard Drive

on

page 46.

7. Select the Jam Recovery option. For details, see

Jam Recovery

on page 62.

8. Lock the control panel menus. For details, see

Locking the Control Panel Menus

on page 52.

9. Configure SNMP. For details, see

Configuring SNMP

on page 53.

10. Disable unused protocols. For details, see

Protocol Control

on page 27.

11. Disable Job Accounting. For details, see

To Enable or Disable Job Accounting

on page 24.

Note:

To secure protocols, disable any protocols you are not using. This prevents

unauthorized access through applications that use these protocols. For example, if you want
to use IPP for a secure printing channel, disable the other printing protocols, Port 9100 and
LPR. Disabling some protocols also disables some printer functions, such as printer
discovery and Status Monitor.
