Configuring The LDAP Settings

We recommend setting up LDAP in medium to large sized offices. It conveniently allows users to find their name (associated with their inhouse email address) from the touch panel of the Sharp Scanners address book. This also saves administrative time by not needing to have someone manually enter each individual name and email address into the Sharps web interface. Note: LDAP must be set up on your network for this work.

It is recommended to enter the company name or department name See next page to determine settings Enter the IP address of the LDAP Server (usually Domain Controller)

Enter a domain User Name. It is recommended using one that does not expire. You may consider creating one called Sharp. Choose NTLM For most Microsoft networks. Novell usually uses Anonymous.
