The SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) user is requesting a multifunction device to be set up for the office printer, scanning, and fax capability, and also allowing guest WiFi access. To meet this request, the following configuration changes should be made:

  1. Enable user authentication: This will ensure that only authorized users can access the printer, scanner, and fax functions. User authentication can be done using various methods such as passwords, smart cards, or biometric authentication.

  2. Configure the print server: This will enable the printer to be shared among multiple users in the office. The print server can also be configured to restrict access to certain functions and limit user privileges.

In addition to the above, the following changes may also be necessary:

  1. Enable cloud settings: This will allow users to print from anywhere, anytime using cloud printing services. However, this may require additional configuration and may not be suitable for all SOHO environments.

  2. Disable remote printing: This will prevent users from printing remotely, which may be a security concern in some environments.

  3. Disable the wireless network: This will prevent unauthorized users from accessing the office network through the wireless network. However, this may not be a feasible option if employees need to connect to the network wirelessly.

  4. Connect to a wired network: This will provide a more secure connection to the network and prevent unauthorized access. However, this may require additional hardware and may not be a feasible option for all SOHO environments.

In summary, enabling user authentication and configuring the print server are the two best configuration changes that will meet the SOHO user's request for a multifunction device to be set up for the office printer, scanning, and fax capability, and allowing guest WiFi access.
