You can store an address that is obtained by searching the directory listings on the network using LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) servers.
|
NOTE
|
|
You may have to set up the LDAP servers beforehand, depending on the network environment.
For more information on LDAP servers, see "LDAP Server Settings."
The information that can be obtained through the LDAP server varies, depending on the installed or activated options, as follows:
If the fax board is not installed: names and e-mail addresses
If the fax board is installed: names, e-mail addresses, and fax numbers

1.
Press 
→ [Set Destination] → [Register Destinations] → [Register New Dest.].
→ [Set Destination] → [Register Destinations] → [Register New Dest.].
2.
Press [LDAP Server].
3.
Press the Server to Search drop-down list → select the desired server to search.
If the Enter Network Password screen is displayed, enter the user name and the password → press [OK]. After pressing [OK], the password that you entered appears as asterisks (********) on the Enter Network Password screen. The Enter Network Password screen is displayed if either one of the following is true:
If <Login Information> in Register LDAP Server in Set Destination (Settings/Registration) is set to 'Use', and <Display Authentication Dialog When Searching> in Register LDAP Server in Set Destination (Settings/Registration) is set to 'On'.
If the user name, password, and domain name specified in Register LDAP Server in Set Destination (Settings/Registration) are incorrect.
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
Searching for a destination via an LDAP server is not possible if the time setting of the server and the time setting of the machine are more than five minutes apart. If you cannot send even when the user name and password are correct, check the time settings on the server and the machine.
The number of search results displayed will not exceed the maximum limit set in Register LDAP Server in Set Destination (Settings/Registration). If the desired destination is not displayed, either increase the maximum number of addresses to search, or change the search criteria. (See "LDAP Server Settings.")
|
|
NOTE
|
|
If multiple LDAP servers are registered and [Auto Search When Using LDAP Server] is set to 'On' in Set Destination (Settings/Registration), the first registered server displayed on the drop-down list is searched.

Specify the search criteria.
|

If a new destination search is performed when a search result is already displayed on the destination list screen, the displayed search result is cleared.
If the search result for specified criteria is displayed, the search result is cleared and search for all criteria is processed when you press [ALL].
If the [Auto Search When Using LDAP Server] in Set Destination (Settings/Registration) is set to 'Off', nothing is displayed on the destination list screen until a search is performed.
If the search result from [Search by Conditions] is displayed on the search list screen, you cannot additionally press [Search by Name] to narrow the search by name.
If you want to search for a destination that is registered with an e-mail address and a fax number, you can search for the e-mail address by entering the fax number as the search criterion, and vice versa.

If you want to narrow the search for destination by entering characters of the name on the keyboard:
Press [Search by Name].
Enter the text to search on the keyboard screen → press [OK].
Enter the first character of the name for the destination. You cannot search if you enter a character other than the first character of the name.
Press [Search by Conditions].
Press the search category drop-down list → select the desired search category.
The available search categories are:

Search by organizational unit (e.g., departments in an organization).

For example, if cn(common name)=user1, ou(organization unit)=salesdept, o(organization)=canon, c(country)=jp is the distinguished name in the directory, enter the organization/organizationUnit of the user as follows:
organization=canon
organizationUnit=salesdept
|
NOTE
|
|
The organization/organizationUnit can be used as search categories only if the information has been registered on the LDAP Server.
Detailed Search by organization/organizationUnit may not be performed, depending on whether the attribute types have been registered on the LDAP server, and depending on the type of application on the server.
You can also add additional user-defined search attributes. For more information on registering or editing a search attribute, see "LDAP Server Settings."
