Using User Authentication

Using authentication, administrators manage the printer and its users. To enable authentication, information about both administrators and users must be registered in order to authenticate users via their login user names and passwords.

There are four kinds of administrator. Each administrator manages a specific area of printer usage, such as settings or user registration.

Access limits for each user are specified by the administrator responsible for user access to printer functions and documents and data stored in the printer.

When authentication is set on the printer, see If User Authentication is Specified.
