Secure Function Lock

Secure Function Lock lets you restrict public 
access to certain machine functions (Fax, 
Copy, Scan, Print
and PCC).
This feature also prevents users from 
changing the default settings of the machine 
by limiting access to the menu settings.
Before using the security features you must 
first enter an administrator password.
Access to restricted operations can be 
enabled by creating a restricted user. 
Restricted users must enter a user password 
to use the machine.
Make a careful note of your password. If you 
forget it, please call Brother Customer 
Service.

Print includes PC-Fax Send as well as all print jobs.
Note
• Only administrators can set limitations
and make changes for each user.
• When Print is disabled, PC print jobs will
be lost without notification.
• If Fax Tx is disabled, you cannot use any
function in the Fax menu.
• Polling Receive is enabled only when both
Fax Tx and Fax Rx are enabled.
