This printer setting allows you to specify both the wireless encryption type and authentication type in one command.
The supporting parameters that are required vary based on the security type that you select. See Supporting SGDs for Different Security Types on page 3 for instructions for each security type.
When using certificate files, Zebra printers support:
using Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) formatted certificate files.
using the client certificate and private key as two files, each downloaded separately.
using exportable PAC files for EAP-FAST.
These certificate files can only be sent using ZPL, not SGD. The ZPL command to use when sending these certificate files is the
~DY
command.
Configuring the printer for WPA also allows the printer to be used in WPA2 environments.
When using certificate files, the time on the printer must be set correctly for the WebSocket connection to succeed, as the time is used in the certificate validation.
