Certificate
- Overview
- This page allows you to configure a certificate and the corresponding secret key for this print server.
- This print server supports two certification methods. A self-signed certificate and a certificate that is issued by a CA (Certificate Authority).
- Use self-signed certificate
- This print server issues its own certificate.
- It is easier to use this type of certificate with functions rather than using a certificate from a CA.
- Use a certificate from a CA.
- There are two ways to create a certificate from a CA. Method 1: using a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from this print server. Method 2: The CA to create a certificate and a secret key.
- Please use this if you already have a CA or would like to use a certificate from an outside trusted CA.
- NOTE:
Some functions are disabled depending on the status of the certificate configuration. - The functions are grayed and unlinked.
- Certificate List
- Display the list of certificates which are installed on this print server
- View
- The contents of the certificate are displayed.
- Delete
- Delete the certificate and secret key from this print server
- Export
- This print server exports the certificate and secret key.
- Create Self-Signed Certificate
- This print server creates a self-signed certificate and installs it by itself.
- It is easier to use this type of certificate with functions rather then using a certificate from a CA.
- There are now two choices to select with the Public Key Algorithim and Digest Algorithim.
- The higher security settings are selected by the default (Public Key Algorithm: RSA2048bit and Digest Algorithm:SHA256).
- When you connect to a device which does not support the higher security, please lower the security settings .
- Create CSR
- This print server creates a CSR to be issued with a certificate from a CA.
- After the CA issues a certificate, install the certificate in the page "Install Certificate."
- You can select a Public Key Algorithm and Digest Algorithm security levels, to create a Self-Signed Certificate.
- Install Certificate
- This print server installs a certificate from the CA.
- Only a certificate issued with this print server CSR can be installed.
- To use SSL/TLS communication with this print server, the certificate from the CA needs to be installed at the computer communicating with the print server.
- NOTE:
This function is enabled after creating a CSR. - Import Certificate and Private Key
- This print server imports the certificate and Private key.
