3 User Operations
3.1 User Authentication Function
When [ON (MFP)] or [ON (External Server)] (Active Directory) is set for Authentication Method of the
Administrator Settings, the User Authentication function implements authentication of the user of this
machine before he or she actually uses it through the User Password that consists of 8 to 64 digits. During
the authentication procedure, the User Password entered for the authentication purpose appears as "*" or
"
●" on the display.
After authentication by a user is successful using the User Name and Password entered from the control
panel with the ID & Print Setting function set in the machine, the user can automatically print his or her print
data saved in the ID & Print User Box. Because printing occurs after user authentication is performed via the
control panel of this machine, it is suitable for printing highly confidential documents.
When the Enhanced Security Mode is set to [ON], the number of times in which authentication fails is
counted.

Note
Before operating the machine, the user him/herself should change the User Password from that
registered by the Administrator of the machine. For details of changing the User Password, see
"Performing Change Password" on page 3-13 . For more details of User Name and User Password,
ask the Administrator of the machine.
Register the ID & Print Document through the printer driver on the PC side. As in the ordinary user
authentication procedure, enter the User Name and User Password in the printer driver on the PC side
and then specify [ID & Print]. The password entered is displayed as "*." If the User Password does not
correspond to the User Name entered, the ID & Print Document is discarded without being registered.
Entry of a wrong User Password is counted as unauthorized access. If a wrong User Password is
entered a predetermined number of times (once to three times) set by the Administrator of the machine
or more, the subsequent authentication operation is an access lock state and it is not possible to
transmit the print job. As a result, the access lock state disables user authentication attempts from the
control panel or PageScope Web Connection. To cancel the access lock state, the Administrator of the
machine must perform the Release Setting. Contact the Administrator of the machine.
If the User Password is changed by the Administrator of the machine during operation of this machine,
the user him/herself should immediately change the User Password.
