Functions - NDD Print Client Canon

The NDD Print Client Canon offers several features that make the user's daily tasks easier. These include:

• Secure Release

When the “Secure Release” feature is enabled, documents will only be printed after the user has explicitly authorized them in the NDD Print Client.

• Environmental Impact

Displays monthly statistics on the environmental impact of the equipment in question.

Below are the instructions for the configuration of each feature of the NDD Print Client Canon:

• Authentication

• Secure release

• Environmental impact

  
  

Configure Authentication

Authentication Methods

Identifier Registration

Registration can be enabled so that users can perform it on the equipment panel, requiring validation of access credentials (using the second authentication method) to confirm the data.

Contingency

Printers may lose communication with the configured server, preventing users from accessing features and applications.

Authentication fallback allows access only to native functions (Copy, Email, Scan, and Fax) even when servers are unavailable.
