Combining user authentication and account track

You can use a combination of user authentication and account track for management of each user for each
department. To combine user authentication and account track, specify whether to synchronize account in-
formation with users according to your environment.
Relationship between us-
ers and accounts

Tips
- When switching between synchronization and non-synchronization of user authentication and account
authentication depending on the business status, configure the following settings to allow each user to
select whether to perform synchronization.
– In the administrator mode, select [User Auth/Account Track] - [General Settings], then set [Synchronize
User Authentication & Account Track] to [Synchronize by User].
– In the administrator mode, select [Security] - [Restrict User Access], then set [Synchronize User Authen-
tication & Account Track By User] to [Allow].

Description
By synchronizing account information with a user, you can associate the
user with an account on a one-to-one basis.
For example, you can allow a company staff member belonging to a certain
department to use color printing and another member belonging to another
department to use black and white printing only. Also, you can count the
number of printed sheets by department to encourage each department to
develop awareness of costs.
If you specify the department of a user when registering him/her, you can
log in as the account only by logging in as the user.
To manage the use status not only by actual department but also by
project, do not synchronize the user with an account.
For example, for a project across multiple departments, you can analyze
the use status of this machine by project as well as by company staff mem-
ber or department.
To log in to this machine, enter the user name, then specify the account.
