Open Océ Print Exec® Workgroup through HTTPS
Introduction
Océ Print Exec® Workgroup enables a secure, encrypted web-based communication for
the submission of jobs through the secure HTTP protocol (HTTPS).
Note:
Find more details in the Océ TDS/TCS Security Manual.
Definition
HTTPS (Secure Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) allows:
By default, a self-signed certificate is preinstalled in the web server. When you open the
web site in a web browser through HTTPS, it then appears as a secure site.
You can also install certificates delivered by a Certificate Authority (see the Océ TDS/TCS
Security Manual).
Note:
Before you begin, make sure you installed the latest version of the product (available on
the Océ website:http://global.oce.com/products/print-exec-workgroup/).
Open Océ Print Exec® Workgroup through HTTPS for the first time
Type the URL https://Printer (IP Address or host name) in the web browser to open the
application through a secured channel.
Chapter 2 - Installation/Activation/Administration 47
Open Océ Print Exec® Workgroup through HTTPS
■ The security certificate is invalid since not delivered by a trusted Certificate Authority
■ The security certificate was issued for a different web site address (URL)
Reason: the printer hostname or IP address (you typed in the web browser) is slightly
different from the name (Common Name) declared in the certificate.
■ Check the Océ certificate, trust it and continue to the website (accept and install the
certificate or add the exception if needed).
Then you will be able to use Océ Print Exec® Workgroup through the secure HTTPS
and send encrypted jobs on the network.
OR
■ Contact your administrator. If required, he will make a request to a Certificate Author-
ity to get a signed certificate (the procedure is described in the Océ TDS/TCS Security
Manual).
This measure is recommended when you want to make sure that your encrypted print
data cannot be intercepted on the network.
