Setting Up User Authentication and
Access Control
General Information
These functions are used to limit access to the

wear and tear on the machine.
User Authentication and Access Control are
password protected and must be set up by the
System Administrator.

these functions:
• The machine must be connected to a network.
• For networks with only Windows systems, the
Configuration Tool utility must be installed on a
computer on the network.

User Authentication
User Authentication allows the System
Administrator to limit use of the machine to
people who have been assigned either
• a PIN (personal identification number)
or
• a user name and password.
This limitation applies to both walk-up use and
using the machine from a computer.
You can assign up to 100 PINs with or without
User Name and Password.
Access Control
Access Control takes it a step further by allowing
the System Administrator to limit the type of
functions each person authorized to use the
machine can perform.

functions:
• Copying (Color/Mono)
