Authentication ModeThe method by which the users authenticate themselves at the printer (User ID, User ID + PIN, RFID Card or RFID Card +PIN). On the Per­sonal Printing server, Card with preset ID must be set as the authentication method.

In that situation, we recommend you select RFID CARD + PIN.)

• with manual setup by the admin: ... must be the same as the User PIN in the users’ AD configuration on the Personal Printing server
Connection MethodConnection between the printer and the Personal Printing server: with (HTTPS) or without (HTTP) encryption. For HTTPS, an root certificate must be installed on the printer (go to Security→ Network Security→ Digital Cer­tificate). In addition, on the Personal Printing server, Internet Information Services is configured for encryption and a server certificate (signed by the root certificate) is installed.
