S/MIME

Click E-mail Setting - S/MIME on the menu of Network tab to display this screen.

S/MIME (Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) is one of the E-mail encryption methods. Using S/MIME encrypts an e-mail to be sent from the MFP, preventing third parties from sniffing the e-mail during sending. Furthermore, if a digital signature is added to an e-mail, it certifies that the sender certificate or data is not changed maliciously.

Specify whether or not to use the S/MIME setting. You add the digital signature.

  1. To use S/MIME, select ON from the S/MIME Comm.Setting drop-down list.

    * To select ON, the administrator's e-mail address specified in the device registration needs to correspond with the e-mail address specified at the time of certification creation.

  2. Specify Digital Signature and Digital Signature Type if necessary.

  3. Click OK. Clicking Cancel cancels the setting.
