User Names and
Passwords

(

Secure EX Series

Printers Only)

This feature allows the administrator to set up to 20 user names and passwords (one administrator and 19 users)
to prevent unauthorized access of the Secure EX printer’s secure resources and other security features. All names
and passwords are stored in the secure memory area of the Secure EX printer’s memory and can be assigned
and/or modified by the administrator using the TROY Printer Utility. The administrator can print a list of active
user names and passwords using the TROY Printer Utility or printer control panel.

If the administrator configures a Secure EX series printer with one or more user names and passwords, the
following list of features will only be accessible to print jobs or user requests at the control panel when a valid
user name and password is used to log in.

Secure features available in the Secure EX printer when a user is logged in:

• Access to the TROY MICR fonts.

• Access to resources stored in the secure area of the printer’s flash memory.
• Changes to the MICR mode.

• Disabling the paper tray mapping set by an administrator

• Print audit reports and delete audit records.
• Print sample reports containing MICR characters (Windows Demo and PCL Demo pages).


User names will be automatically recorded in the enhanced audit data (Secure EX series printers only) for each
print job initiated by a user. The system default user password is blank (no password) and not entering a user
password when assigning a new user will allow that user to access the printer’s secure resources without using a
password. Attempts to add duplicate users will be ignored. If you choose not to set up any user names and
passwords, TROY strongly recommends that administrators set up an administrator password to prevent
unauthorized access to the printer features and settings from the TROY Printer Utility, the TROY Port Monitor,
or the printer control panel.
