Security Functions

Setting the EnhancedSecurity mode to “ON” will validate the security func-
tion of this machine. For details of the settings of different security functions
to be changed by turning “ON” the EnhancedSecurity mode, see “Enhancing
the Security Function” on page 2-8.

Setting the EnhancedSecurity mode to “ON” will enhance the authentication
function. Access control is then provided through password authentication
for any access to the Admin. Setting mode, User Box, a User Box data file,
and a Secure Print file. Access is thereby granted only to the authenticated
user.

A password that can be set must meet the requirements of the Password
Rules. The machine does not accept setting of an easily decipherable pass-
word. For details of the Password Rules, see “Password Rules” on
page 1-11
.

If a wrong password is entered, during password authentication, a predeter-
mined number of times (once to three times) set by the Administrator of the
machine or more, the machine determines that it is unauthorized access
through Prohibit Function When Auth. Error, prohibiting any further entry of
the password. By prohibiting the password entry operation, the machine pre-
vents unauthorized use or removal of data, thereby ensuring secured used
of the machine.

To cancel the password entry operation prohibited condition, the Adminis-
trator must perform the Release Setting. When the Administrator performs
the Release Setting for the operation prohibited condition, a sound operation
control in utmost security is achieved under the control of the Administrator.

If the optional Hard Disk HD-501 is mounted, the HDD Password setting pro-
vides the following security function. That is, even if the HDD is illegally re-
placed with another, the HDD authentication function prohibits access to the
HDD, when the HDD Password is yet to be set or there is a mismatch in the
passwords. In addition, should the HDD be removed unawares, the HDD
Password locks the HDD protecting data contained in the HDD. Further-
more, by mounting the optional Security Kit SC-503 and setting the Encryp-
tion Key, the data stored in the HDD is encrypted, thereby protecting the data
in the HDD. Note, however, that the HDD Password and Encryption Key do
not prevent the HDD from being physically removed. Make sure of a good
operation control.

When the machine is to be discarded, or use of a leased machine is termi-
nated at the end of the leasing contract, the Overwrite All Data function over-
writes and erases all data stored in all spaces of the HDD. The function also
resets all passwords saved in the NVRAM to factory settings, preventing leak
of data. For details of items to be cleared by Overwrite All Data function, see
“Types of Data Cleared by Overwrite All Data Function” on page 1-12.
