Registering and Changing Administrators

If administrator authentication has been specified, we recommend only one person should take each administrator role.

The sharing of administrator tasks eases the burden on individual administrators while also limiting unauthorized operations by a single administrator. You can register up to 4 login user names (Administrators 1-4) to which you can grant administrator privileges.

For details about logging in and logging out with administrator authentication, see Administrator Login Method and Administrator Logout Method.

2Point to [Device Management], and then click [Configuration].

3Click [Program/Change Administrator] under "Device Settings".

5Enter the [Login User Name] of the selected administrator number.

6Click [Change] for "Login Password".

Follow the password policy to make the login password more secure.

For details about the password policy and how to specify it, see Specifying the Extended Security Functions.
