are available to every digital sender or device that DSS supports. If the addresses that are contained in these address books are no longer needed, they can be deleted by clicking Clear in the DSS Address Books section of the Addressing tab. This lists all existing address books, so that one or more of them can be selected.

Configuring LDAP directory replication

The e-mail addresses and fax numbers in the address book come from several sources:

●The LDAP server on the network

●Destinations that users have previously specified at the control panel

●E-mail and fax address books that have been created by using the HP Address Book Manager

One of two methods can be used to synchronize the digital-sender address books with the LDAP server. Table 3-32 Address book synchronization on page 107 contains descriptions of these methods.

NOTE: If the device is configured to use an LDAP address book directly, it cannot gain access to the replicated address book. If replication is used, only the display names and e-mail addresses are replicated.
