Locking the Operator Panel Menus Using the Embedded Web

Server

You can use the operator panel lockout functionality to create a PIN and choose specific menus to lock. Each time a locked

menu is selected, the user will be prompted to enter the correct PIN. The PIN does not affect access through the Embedded

Web Server.

To lock operator panel menus:

1. Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the

format: http://ip_address/.

2. Click Configuration.

3. Under Security, choose the menus you want to protect.

4. Create and re-enter the PIN.

NOTE:

PINs must be 4 digits and numeric (0–9).

NOTE:

If you do not know the IP address of the printer, print a network setup page and locate the IP address in the

TCP/IP section. For more information, see

Printing a Network Setup Page

.

NOTE:

Locking the printer operator panel will prevent a user from entering the printer operator panel both remotely

and at the printer.
