Levels of access and control

Passwords

You can implement password requirements as a means of controlling access to
ColorPASS functions. The ColorPASS allows for the following passwords to be set
in Setup:

• Administrator—from the Control Panel or the Command WorkStation

• Operator—from the Command WorkStation

:

By default, no passwords are set on the ColorPASS. If you do not specifically

set passwords, all users will have administrator privileges, which include access to
important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords), and job control. It is
strongly recommended that you set at least an Administrator password to protect the
ColorPASS from random or accidental changes to Setup.

Administrator privileges

Administrator control, which confers control of Setup, is the highest level of control,
since the person who has access to Setup can control the printing and job management
environment. Administrator privileges include publishing print connections, setting
passwords, deleting fonts, clearing the ColorPASS of all job data, performing
calibration, and setting the WebLink destination.

When performing a function from the ColorPASS Control Panel that prompts you for
the Administrator password, you must enter it promptly. Otherwise, the ColorPASS
Control Panel returns to Idle, and you must start over again.

Operator privileges

Operator control includes control of print jobs from the job management tools,
including the ability to override job settings.

Guest privileges (no password)

No password is needed for a user to log in as a Guest from the job management tools.
A Guest can view the status of active jobs but cannot make changes to jobs or to the
ColorPASS state.
