Configuring Xerox Workplace Cloud Authentication Settings
When Xerox Workplace Cloud authentication is enabled, the printer connects directly to the Xerox® Workplace Cloud solution. This method provides multiple options for authentication. To prove their identity, users can use mobile authentication methods such as NFC or QR Codes, use an identification card, or type a user name and password.
The configuration options for Xerox Workplace Cloud authentication are similar to the options for convenience authentication, with an additional option to configure a proxy server if needed.
Note:To ensure that the remote server solution works with your printer, you need to add the printer to the remote server solution. As part of this workflow, the remote server configures the printer using SNMP or Web services. For more information, refer to the solutions setup guide for your remote server.
