Hello,

 

I am trying to restrict the access to the printer using the ACL feature. But even when enabling the feature and only adding one local ip, I am still able to access the web interface  and even print. Can anyone confirm this feature is not working at all?

Do you have a security password set? Some features will not work without a password set.

Yes a security password is set. ACL seems to do anything, but not what I am expecting. As soon as ACL is activated the printer has no longer access to the internet. The SMTP-Server that works fine suddenly becomes unavailable. If I disable ACL it starts working again.
