Changing the SSL/TLS Encrypted Communication Mode

This section describes the encrypted communication modes for SSL/TLS.

This printer is capable of encrypted communication using SSL. Encryption by SSL prevents eavesdropping and unauthorized acquisition of data.

There are various encryption modes of differing security strengths available for SSL/TLS. This printer supports the following SSL/TLS encryption modes:

Ciphertext Only

Only encrypted data is allowed. Non-encrypted data is refused.

Ciphertext Priority

Data is encrypted if possible. If encryption is not available, data is sent as plain text.

Ciphertext / Cleartext

Data is sent in encrypted or plain text format, depending on the method specified.

For details about how to configure SSL/TLS, contact your administrator.
