Security

The CloudPRNT printer, clients optionally support the HTTP Basic Authentication standard, for username/password authentication and https/TLS encryption.

In situations where authentication is needed, customers are strongly recommended to use TLS encryption also, to avoid easy password capture through monitoring unencrypted http traffic.

The CloudPRNT printer hardware includes a set of common CA certificates which are synchronized with the current Mozilla recommendations.

As a result, it will automatically trust https sites signed with certificates from common Certificate Authorities.

However, it is also possible to install a custom CA certificate set if required.
