Specifying Usage Permission for Each Application
You can restrict usage of an application for each user (Application Authentication Settings). The icon of the restricted application will not be displayed on the Home screen.
When usage of the Copier, Scanner, or Fax function is restricted, you cannot use ID Card Copy, Print/Scan (Memory Storage Device) and all other applications related to the restricted function.
You can also restrict usage of a specific application without restricting usage of the Copier, Scanner, or Fax function.
Enable the user authentication function in advance.
