What are some features supported by the machine to enhance security and secrecy?
- Firewall Settings: Unauthorized access by third parties, as well as network attacks and intrusions, can be blocked by limiting communication only to devices that have a specific IP address or MAC address.
- Changing Port Numbers: A protocol that is used to exchange information with other devices is assigned port numbers that are predetermined according to the type of protocol. The port number must be the same for all communication devices; therefore, changing it to an arbitrary number is important to prevent hacking from outside.
- Proxy Settings: When the client devices are connected to an external network, communication is established through the proxy server. When the proxy server is used, websites can be browsed more safely; therefore, security can be expected to be enhanced.
- TLS Encrypted Communication: TLS is a protocol for encryption for data sent over a network and is often used for communication via a Web browser or an e-mail application. TLS enables secure network communication when you access the machine from a computer via the Remote UI.
- IPSec Communication: While TLS only encrypts data used on a specific application, such as a Web browser or an e-mail application, IPSec encrypts the whole (or payloads of) IP packets. This enables IPSec to offer a more versatile security system than TLS.
- IEEE 802.1X Authentication: IEEE 802.1X is a standard and mechanism for blocking unauthorized access to the network by collectively managing user authentication information. If a device tries to connect to the 802.1X network, the device must go through user authentication to prove that the connection is made by an authorized user. Authentication information is sent to and checked by a RADIUS server, which permits or rejects communication to the network depending on the authentication result. If authentication fails, a LAN switch (or an access point) blocks access from the outside of the network. The machine can connect to an 802.1X network as a client device.

What is Internet Protocol Security (IPSec or IPsec)?
Internet Protocol Security (IPSec or IPsec) is a protocol suite for encrypting data transported over a network, including Internet networks. While TLS only encrypts data used on a specific application, such as a Web browser or an e-mail application, IPSec encrypts either whole IP packets or the payloads of IP packets, offering a more versatile security system. The IPSec of the machine works in transport mode, in which the payloads of IP packets are encrypted. With this feature, the machine can connect directly to a computer that is in the same virtual private network (VPN). Check the system requirements and set the necessary configuration on the computer before you configure the machine.
What are IP address filter settings applied before?
IP address filter settings are applied before the IPSec policies.
What does configuring IPSec Settings require you to do before using IPSec for encrypted communication?
Before using IPSec for encrypted communication, you need to register security policies (SP). A security policy consists of the groups of settings described below. After registering policies, specify the order in which they are applied.
- Selector Selector defines conditions for IP packets to apply IPSec communication. Selectable conditions include IP addresses and port numbers of the machine and the devices to communicate with.
- IKE IKE configures the IKEv1 that is used for key exchange protocol. Note that instructions vary depending on the authentication method selected.
- [Pre-Shared Key Method] This authentication method uses a common key word, called Shared Key, for communication between the machine and other devices. Enable TLS for the Remote UI before specifying this authentication method.
- [Digital Signature Method] The machine and the other devices authenticate each other by mutually verifying their digital signatures. Generate or install the key and certificate beforehand.
- AH/ESP Specify the settings for AH/ESP, which is added to packets during IPSec communication. AH and ESP can be used at the same time. You can also select whether or not to enable PFS for tighter security.

What does the machine connect to as a client device?
The machine can connect to an 802.1X network as a client device. A typical 802.1X network consists of a RADIUS server (authentication server), LAN switch (authenticator), and client devices with authentication software (supplicants). If a device tries to connect to the 802.1X network, the device must go through user authentication in order to prove that the connection is made by an authorized user. Authentication information is sent to and checked by a RADIUS server, which permits or rejects communication to the network depending on the authentication result. If authentication fails, a LAN switch (or an access point) blocks access from the outside of the network.
What are the IEEE 802.1X Authentication Methods?
Select the authentication method from the options below. If necessary, install or register a key and certificate or a CA certificate before configuring IEEE 802.1X authentication.
- TLS The machine and the authentication server authenticate each other by mutually verifying their certificates. A key and certificate issued by a certification authority (CA) is required for the client authentication (when authenticating the machine). For the server authentication, a CA certificate installed via the Remote UI can be used in addition to a CA certificate preinstalled in the machine.
- TTLS This authentication method uses a user name and password for the client authentication and a CA certificate for the server authentication. MSCHAPv2 or PAP can be selected as the internal protocol. TTLS can be used with PEAP at the same time. Enable TLS for the Remote UI before configuring this authentication method.
- PEAP The required settings are almost the same as those of TTLS. MSCHAPv2 is used as the internal protocol. Enable TLS for the Remote UI before configuring this authentication method.

How do I adjust image quality?
If the print results or scanned images are not satisfactory such as low image quality, poor reproducibility, or print color mismatch, try the adjustments below.
- Auto Adjust Gradation: If the density or brightness of colors in printouts and originals are different, perform <Auto Adjust Gradation> to improve color reproducibility. There are three types of adjustments: <Full Adjust>, <Quick Adjust>, and <Adjust Copy Image>.
- Correct Print Color Mismatch: If the colors in printouts become blurry, perform <Correct Print Color Mismatch>. This problem may be caused by a color mismatch.
- Black Text Processing for Color: You can make an adjustment such that black or nearly black text is reproduced in a color closely matching with the original that was scanned in color.
- Adjust Print Position: You can adjust the print position when the printed image is skewed or part of the image is outside the print range.
How do I adjust gradation?
Gradation refers to the dark to light continuum of shades of a color. The more shades in the gradations of colors that are printed, the more natural printouts seem. If color reproducibility becomes poor and the density and brightness of printouts differ markedly from the originals, perform the appropriate adjustment (calibration). There are three types of adjustments: “Full Adjust” for accurate adjustment, “Quick Adjust” for simple adjustment, and “Adjust Copy Image” for gradation adjustment, especially for copying.
- Frequent calibration may affect the lifetime of toner cartridges.
- When the remaining amount of toner in cartridges is low, performing calibration may result in disruption of color balance. If this phenomenon actually occurs after calibration, it is recommended that you replace any toner cartridges with a low remaining amount.
- The machine performs automatic adjustment (automatic calibration) in accordance with changes in the usage condition or environmental conditions.
How do I perform a full adjust?
This adjustment optimizes reproducibility for color printing. When the machine performs a full adjustment, it obtains information to optimize color reproducibility.

What are the terms of imageWARE Remote Service?
If your Canon imageCLASS product is enabled with embedded functions for the imageWARE Remote Diagnostic Service (“iWR”), or your product is not iWR enabled but it interacts with the iWR Remote Diagnostic System (“RDS”) Plug-In program of imageWARE Enterprise Management Console (“EMC”) software, then Canon USA, Canon Canada, or their respective authorized independent Canon retail dealers can access Product meter readings and receive notifications of certain automated meter information, device error monitoring, and supply replenishment notices automatically via the internet. You can read more about iWR in Canon-published materials available from your dealer or on the websites of Canon USA (www.usa.canon.com) or Canon Canada (www.canon.ca). iWR will only collect and transmit Product-specific meter readings and service data, and will not access, collect, or transmit your image content data in the Product.
What does my instruction to Canon USA, Canon Canada, or my dealer to activate iWR (embedded or Plug-In) for a Product mean?
Your instruction to Canon USA, Canon Canada or your dealer to activate iWR (embedded or Plug-In) for a Product shall be considered:
(i) a representation that you have an internal IP network and internet access available on a generally continuous basis;
(ii) authorization by you to establish, and perform during the period of iWR activation, HTTPS communications using your network bandwidth for transmissions over the internet of use and service data accumulated by the Product and send iWR notice emails to Canon USA, Canon Canada, or your dealer, and
(iii) authorization by you to store, analyze and use this data for purposes related to servicing the Product and for Product and iWR improvement.
What am I acknowledging by instructing Canon USA, Canon Canada or my dealer to activate iWR?
By so instructing Canon USA, Canon Canada, or your dealer, you shall also be considered to acknowledge that (A) the iWR software (embedded or Plug-In) is the confidential property of Canon USA and its licensor; (B) you have no rights in such iWR software (except as the Product executes the limited data collection and transmission functions for which it is configured when delivered and you obtain the benefits of iWR as outlined in Canon-published materials), © you shall not disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer, disclose or attempt to copy such iWR software, allow any third party to do any of the foregoing or transfer your limited rights to any other party without the prior written approval of Canon USA or Canon Canada; and (D) there are many factors outside the control of Canon USA, Canon Canada or their respective dealers that could affect the accuracy or timing of meter readings or service data harvested by iWR and, except as expressly provided in the limited warranty statement for the Product or End-User License Agreement for EMC software, in the case of the iWR RDS Plug-In program, neither Canon USA, Canon Canada nor their respective dealers shall be responsible for alleged deficiencies in, or your dissatisfaction with, iWR or any software used to provide iWR.
What happens if my dealer ceases to be an authorized Canon USA dealer?
If your dealer ceases to be an authorized Canon USA dealer, it will no longer have access to the use and service data accumulated by iWR for your Product. In that case, you may request or instruct Canon USA to recommend to you an alternative service provider who will have access to this data in order to maintain Product service utilizing iWR functionality.

The fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.
