8. Comparison: Smart Device Connector Versus Smart Device Print & Scan

9. Configuration

10. System Configuration for Android Android smart device ＋ Cheetah MFP Step 2) Tap the smart device on the NFC tag. Wi-Fi Direct The network information to connect to the machine must be already written on the NFC tag. NFC tag Step1) Configure the settings for a function. Cheetah Step 3) The smart device automatically obtains the following network information from the MFP and Cheetah panel: MFP (IP address), Cheetah (SSID, password, security method, IP address) Step 4) The smart device automatically connects to the MFP via TCP/IP or to the Cheetah panel via Wi-Fi Direct.

11. System Configuration for iOS iOS smart device ＋ Cheetah MFP Step 2) Scan the QR code on the Cheetah panel. Wi-Fi Direct QR code Step1) Configure the settings for a function. Cheetah Step 3) The smart device automatically obtains the following network information from the MFP and Cheetah panel: MFP (IP address), Cheetah (SSID, password, security method, IP address) Step 4) The smart device automatically connects to the MFP via TCP/IP or to the Cheetah panel via Wi-Fi Direct.

12. Presetting (1/4) • Before using Smart Device Connector, the following settings on the MFP operation panel are required: • Install the device certificate (a self-signed certificate is OK). • The device certificate must be installed on the MFP even if an HTTPS connection is not necessary, because the HTTPS connection is required at least once when executing the Cheetah SmartSDK WebAPI for the first time. Applications that communicate with the SmartSDK need to be authenticated by Ricoh.

13. Presetting (2/4) • Before using Smart Device Connector, the following settings on the Cheetah operation panel are required: • Activate “Wi-Fi Direct”and “Port Forwarding” • Enable "Wi-Fi Direct" and "Port Forwarding" on the Cheetah operation panel. • This is required only when the Smart Device Connector connects to the MFP via a guest network.

14. Presetting (2/4) Location: • Screen Features -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi Direct Settings-> Wi-Fi Direct • Screen Features -> Wireless & networks -> Port Forwarding to Machine-> Port Forwarding Settings -> Port Forwarding

15. Presetting (3/4) • The smart device that has the Ricoh Smart Device Connector installed on it should be checked to make sure that it can connect to the corporate network so that it can communicate with the MFP on that network.

16. Presetting (4/4) • Before using Smart Device Connector, configuring the following settings on the MFP or Cheetah operation panel are recommended: • Enable Machine Management settings • Smart Device Connector can transmit information about the connection—for example, the Cheetah SSID and MFP IP address—to the NFC tag. • The initial settings must be configured so that Smart Device Connector can transmit data to the NFC tag. However, anyone can configure the initial settings by default. Because of this, from a security viewpoint, enabling Machine Administrator Authentication is recommended. • By enabling Machine Administrator Authentication, only the machine administrator can read the QR code on the Cheetah panel and relay the connection information to the NFC tag.

17. QR Code – Allow Usage by Guest • Log on to the Cheetah operation panel by using machine administrative privileges and display the QR code on the panel by opening Smart Device Connector and accessing the settings. Allow Usage by Guest Enable this setting when the Smart Device Connector connects to the MFP via a guest network (Cheetah Wi-Fi). Note: This setting is not required if the customer uses the Smart Device Connector only when connected to a corporate network.

18. QR Code – Use HTTPS Connection HTTPS Connection Enable this settingwhen connecting to the MFP with Ricoh Smart Device Connector via HTTPS connection. For customers that allow usage by guest and are sensitive for the security, it is recommended to enable this setting. If this setting is enabled, it has nothing to do with the “Permit SSL/TLS Communication” in the MFP settings. On the other hand, disable this setting in the “ShowQR” window if the customer uses Ricoh Smart Device Connector by connecting to the MFP via HTTP connection. If this setting is disabled, “Permit SSL/TLS Communication” in the MFP settings must be configured to “Ciphertext/Cleartext”.

19. QR Code – Use HTTPS Connection How to display the QR Code on the panel? How to enable “Allow Usage by Guest” and “HTTPS Connection”? QR Code

20. QR Code – Use HTTPS Connection

21. Transmitting to the NFC Tag(for Android) • Initial settings for transmitting data to the NFC tag: • Log on to the Cheetah operation panel and display the QR code on the panel.Note: To display the QR code, open the Smart Device Connector application on the Cheetah operation panel and access the settings. • Obtain information about the network by scanning the QR code. • Tap the smart device on the NFC tag. 2 1 Scan the QR code displayed on the Cheetah panel. Display the QR code from the Cheetah application.

22. Transmitting to the NFC Tag as Machine Administrator (for Android) • Initial settings for transmitting data to the NFC tag if the machine administrator setting is enabled: • Log on to the Cheetah operation panel by using machine administrative privileges and display the QR code on the panel.Note: To display the QR code, open the Smart Device Connector application on the Cheetah operation panel and access the settings. • Obtain information about the network by scanning the QR code. • Tap the smart device on the NFC tag. 2 1 Scan the QR code displayed on the Cheetah panel. Display the QR code from the Cheetah application after loggingon to the MFP as a machine administrator.

23. Scanning the QR Code(for Android) The following step is necessary only when using an Android smart device. • Obtain the information about the network by scanning the QR code on the Cheetah operation panel from the camera on the smart device. • The following information is read from the QR code: • QR code format* • Machine administrative privileges, if available* • HTTPS on or off • Allow Usage by Guest • MFP IP address** • Cheetah SSID/encryption scheme/PSK*** • Cheetah IP address*** • HTTP port number*** • HTTPS port number*** • *Not displayed on Smart Device Connector. • **Used when Smart Device Connector is connected to the MFP via a corporate network. • ***Used when Smart Device Connector is connected to the MFP via a guest network.

24. Manual Settings (for Android) • The settings can be set manually without using tapping the smart device on the NFC tag, but scanning the QR code would be able to set up the initial settings easier and simpler than manual settings. • The machine administrator username and password must be set manually in this method. • Options in the manual settings: • Administrator username and password • Allow Usage by Guest • MFP IP address • Cheetah SSID information • Cheetah IP address • SSL on or off • HTTPS port number

25. Transmitting to the NFC Tag(for Android) • Tap the smart device on the NFC tag. • The following information is transmitted to the NFC tag: • NFC tag format and version • MFP IP address • Allow Usage by Guest • Cheetah SSID information • Cheetah IP address • SSL on or off • HTTPS port number • MFP serial number

26. Note for iOS • Note: iOS smart devices do not use the NFC tag, so the QR code will need to be displayed on the operation panel for the two devices to connected each time. The QR code can be displayed by using a widget on the Cheetah panel without launching the QR code application. Long tap on the Cheetah panel to show the menu.
