  6. Enter information for the SSL certificate; then click OK.
    NOTE: The information you enter does not have to be valid (for example, the Admin E-mail Address does not have to be valid), except the Validity Period, recommend is 3650 days. The Mode using SSL/TLS setting applies only to PageScope Web Connection; you can set it to None without affecting OpenAPI's SSL capabilities.

    We recommend select some RSA based Encryption Key Type (e.g. RSA-2048_SHA-256).

  7. When the message "Certificate has been successfully created" appears, click OK.

  8. Log out of PageScope® Web Connection. If a message appears saying that it is necessary to reboot, reboot the MFP.

NOTE: If you don't turn off Certificate Verification, the warning message will be displayed only once after the reboot your MFD.

It is required to change  Certificate Verification Level Settings, otherwise the embedded terminal cannot be installed in most cases.
It is also recommended to turn off validation of certificate period. This prevents a situation when user authenticates with invalid credentials (invalid card, invalid PIN) and it takes 1 minute to display the information about invalid credentials.

  1. Log in to the MFP's Web interface as administrator.

  2. Navigate to NetworkOpenAPI setting.

  3. Under Certificate Verification Level Settings configure Client Certificates to Do not request.

  4. In the same place set Validity Period to Do not confirm.
