# Logging in using the printer, LAN-Fax, TWAIN driver

When LDAP authentication is specified, make sure the user authentication settings are made on the printer, LAN-Fax, or TWAIN driver.

- To configure printer or LAN-Fax driver’s default settings, log on using an account that has Manage Printers permission. Members of the Administrators group have Manage Printers permission by default.

- You cannot change the printer or LAN-Fax driver’s default settings for each user. Settings configured in the properties dialog box are applied to all users. Procedures and screens might vary depending on the operating system you are using.

- The following procedure is based on Windows 7 as an example. If you are using another operating system, the procedure might vary slightly.

- You can log in to the machine through the TWAIN driver only when using a computer running a Windows operating system.
