Depending on the authentication settings, there are two kinds of [Home] screens:

• Default [Home] screen

  This screen is displayed when the authentication function is not enabled or when the authentication function is enabled and you are logged in as an administrator. The default [Home] screen is also used as the initial screen of a user's [Home] screen. When the default [Home] screen is customized, the initial screen of a user's [Home] screen is also changed.

• User's [Home] screen

  This screen is for each user. To use a user's [Home] screen, enable the authentication. The use of a user's [Home] screen can be limited. For details, see Security Guide.

You can customize the [Home] screen to make it more accessible. The default [Home] screen and user's [Home] screen can be customized separately. When customizing the default [Home] screen, use the [Program] key, User Tools, or Web Image Monitor. When customizing a user's [Home] screen, use the [Program] key or Web Image Monitor. The following contents can be customized:
