Log in to the Unified Client for HP

When you log in to Unified Client for HP, your options vary depending on how authentication is configured on the HP device. Users are authenticated at the HP device by using the on-screen keyboard to enter their credentials or by using their cards at a Kofax Card Reader or third-party card reader.
  1. Press Sign In to log in.
    If the device is configured to show the HP home screen (typically caused by having an application with Guest access), users can trigger the login action by directly pressing on an application with a padlock icon. In this case, users are taken directly to the application after successfully logging in, if they have authorization.
  2. Enter valid login credentials using the on-screen keyboard by tapping within the User ID field, or by presenting your card to the card reader. You might also need to provide a password.

    Depending on the configuration, one or more login fields may appear.
