Got a customer who is going to be transitioning to Microsoft Azure and they're asking for the scan to email compatibility with their Ricoh copiers. They currently have a few MP C4504ex and MP C6004ex. Right now currently they are using LDAP to scan. Does anyone have any experience with Azure on Ricoh copiers? This would be our first customer using Azure.

Re: Microsoft Azure and LDAP & Scan to Email
There is no LDAP connectivity for Azure that I'm aware of. You can synchronise Azure to a local AD and run a sort of hybrid cloud setup.

Re: Microsoft Azure and LDAP & Scan to Email
Bit to unpack here: are they using Azure for storage instead of an on-prem server, or are they going to use Azure AD as a replacement for onsite Active Directory, or maybe even both?
For using Azure AD authentication, you won't be able to use LDAP but the NTFS permissions on your shares will still allow authentication through. The best practise is to use a service account as the default sender for the device and grant that account permissions to every resource you need to access for scanning. It needs to have at least Read/Write permissions in NTFS, though I usually just grant it Modify rights, though the only real difference is the ability to delete files with the latter.Comment
