Supervisor; Resetting The Administrator's Password - Ricoh MP 2553 Series Read Me First

1. Getting Started

Supervisor

The supervisor can delete an administrator's password and specify a new one.
If any of the administrators forgets their password or if any of the administrators changes, the supervisor
can assign a new password. If you have logged in using the supervisor's user name and password, you
cannot use normal functions or specify system settings. The methods for logging in and out are the same
as for administrators. See page 23 "Administrator Login Method" and page 25 "Administrator Logout
Method".
• The default login user name is "supervisor". No login password is set up. We recommend changing
the login user name and login password.
• For the characters that can be used for login user names and passwords, see page 21 "Usable
characters for user names and passwords".
• Be sure not to forget the supervisor login user name and login password. If you do forget them, a
service representative will have to return the machine to its default state. This will result in the
machine setting data, counters, logs and other data being lost; consequently, the service call may
not be free of charge.
• You cannot specify the same login user name for the supervisor and the administrators.
• Using Web Image Monitor, you can log in as the supervisor and delete an administrator's
password or specify a new one.
