Advanced Space/Network Settings - Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE 6075/6065/6055 e-Manual

Advanced Space/Network Settings

There are two types of storage locations in the Advanced Space; Shared Space and Personal Space. To use these storage locations, it is necessary to specify their settings. The System Manager has to specify the various settings such as the user authentication settings, whether to allow users to use the Personal Space, and the Open to Public setting, according to your needs.

Advanced Space User Authentication Management Settings

The following settings are required to perform authentication management for the users that use the Advanced Space.

Register the user that performs authentication management in "User Access Control for Advanced Space" (authentication application). (See "User Access Control for Advanced Space.")

Set [Authentication Management] in Advanced Space Settings in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to 'On'. (See "Setting the Advanced Space to be Open to the Public as a WebDAV/SMB Server.")

Allowing Users to Use the Personal Space

In addition to "Advanced Space User Authentication Management Settings," the following setting is required to allow users to use the Personal Space.

Set [Allow to Create Personal Space] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to 'On'. (See "Allowing to Create Personal Space.")

Opening the Advanced Space Using SMB or WebDAV

The following settings are required to open the Advanced Space to the public using SMB or WebDAV. This enables you to open the Advanced Space of the machine to be used as network storage, and enables the Advanced Space to be used from computers.

Using SMB:

Set [Open to Public] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to [By SMB]. (See "Setting the Advanced Space to be Open to the Public as a WebDAV/SMB Server.")

Set [Use SMB Server] in Preferences (Settings/Registration) to 'On'. (See "SMB and WINS Settings.")

If the Advance Box is open to the public by setting the Advanced Space authentication management to 'On', set the authentication type by setting [Use SMB Authentication] in [SMB Server Settings] in Preferences (Settings/Registration) to 'On'. (See "SMB and WINS Settings.")

For details on the SMB server settings, see "SMB and WINS Settings."

To allow the public to write in the Advanced Space, set [Prohibit Writing from External] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to 'Off'. (See "Prohibiting Writing from External Users.")

NOTE
If the imagePASS is attached, you cannot open the Advanced Space to the public using SMB. To open the Advanced Space to the public, set WebDAV.

Using WebDAV:

Set [Open to Public] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to [By WebDAV]. (See "Setting the Advanced Space to be Open to the Public as a WebDAV/SMB Server.")

Set [Use WebDAV Server] in Preferences (Settings/Registration) to 'On'. (See "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6.")

If the Advanced Space is open to the public by setting the Advanced Space authentication management to 'On', set the authentication type (Basic) in [WebDAV Server Settings] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration). (See "Setting the Advanced Space to be Open to the Public as a WebDAV/SMB Server.")

To allow the public to write in the Advanced Space, set [Prohibit Writing from External] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration) to 'Off'. (See "Prohibiting Writing from External Users.")

Using the Advanced Space of Another Machine

The following settings are required to use the Advanced Space (network storage) opened to the public using SMB or WebDAV on another machine with this machine.

Settings on this machine:

Register the Advanced Space of another machine that is opened to the public in [Network Place Settings] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration). (See "Setting/Managing the Advanced Space of External Reference (Network Place).")

Set the same communication protocol used to open the Advanced Space of another machine that is open to public in [Protocol for External Reference] in Function Settings (Settings/Registration). (See "Setting the Protocol for External Reference.")

If the imagePASS is attached to the machine for external reference, set WebDAV as the protocol.

The URLs to register are as follows:

If the SSL is invalid: http://IP address:18080/share

If the SSL is valid: https://IP address:18443/share

Settings on the other machine:

If the Advanced Space for external reference is open to public by setting the authentication management to 'On', register the users in "User Access Control for Advanced Space." (See "Registering User Information.")
