NOTE:
When a password is set for the security policy setting function, this password is required to execute [Initialize All Data/Settings] in
the [Settings/Registration] menu.
This prevents users other than security policy administrators from initializing the device and disabling the security policies.
Linked operation with the Restrict Service Representative Access function
Linked operation with the Restrict Service Representative Access function can be set as one of the policies.
However, if the "Restrict Service Representative Access" function is enabled, execution of the service mode for initializing
the above-mentioned policy password is restricted and the service mode cannot be executed.

Export All] function), the settings can be exported and imported using the [Import/Export All] function.

Differences between Security Administrators and System
Administrators
In the Security Policy Settings function, in addition to the conventional "system administrator", there is an administrator called
"security administrator".
The system administrator is a user for whom the role "Administrator" is set on the User Management screen and is allowed to
operate/configure the settings of all the Settings/Registration menu items of the device.
Note that even the system administrator cannot operate or change the settings against the security policies set by the security
administrator described below.
The security administrator creates, applies, edits, backs up and restores security policies.
The security administrator is a system administrator (the user for whom the role "Administrator" is set on the User Management
screen) and knows the password for the security policy settings. (There is no role named "Security Administrator".)
