Active Directory Authentication restricts the use of your Brother machine. If Active Directory Authentication is
enabled, the machine's control panel will be locked. You cannot change the machine's settings until you enter a
User ID and password.
Active Directory Authentication offers the following features:
Stores incoming print data
Stores incoming fax data
Obtains the email address from the LDAP server based on your User ID, when sending scanned data to an
email server.
To use this feature, select the On option for the Get Mail Address setting and LDAP + kerberos
authentication method. Your email address will be set as the sender when the machine sends scanned data
to an email server. If the machine cannot locate your email address, the machine's email address will be set
as the sender.
When Active Directory Authentication is enabled, your machine stores all incoming fax data. After you log on, the
machine prints the stored fax data.
You can change the Active Directory Authentication settings using Web Based Management or BRAdmin
Professional (Windows).
