14 Authentication and Account Administration
To enter the System Administration mode, enter the System Administrator ID into the
user ID entry field on the authentication screen.
Authenticated Users (with System Administrator Privileges)
These are users who are assigned System Administrator privileges.
When a restricted service is used, this type of user must enter a user ID on the
authentication screen.
This type of user has the same privileges as the System Administrator for machine
operations, except:
- Operating mailboxes and job flow sheets
- Changing the passcode of the System Administrator.
Authenticated Users (with Account Administrator Privileges)
These are users who are registered on the machine and assigned Account
Administrator privileges.
When a restricted service is used, this type of user must enter a user ID on the
authentication screen.
This type of user has the same privileges as the System Administrator for account
management. They are permitted to register/delete/edit/view account information.
Authenticated Users (with No System Administrator or Account Administrator
Privileges)
These are users who are registered on the machine and assigned no System
Administrator or Account Administrator privileges.
When a restricted service is used, this type of user must enter a user ID on the
authentication screen.
Unauthenticated Users
These are users who are not registered on the machine.
An Unauthenticated User cannot use services that are restricted.
General Users
These are users other than the System Administrator in non-authentication mode.
Types of Authentication
The following three types of authentication are used by the machine depending on
where user information is stored.
Local Machine Authentication
Local Machine Authentication uses the user information registered for the Accounting
feature to manage authentication. Therefore, the Accounting feature must be enabled
when you use Local Machine Authentication. The print or fax data sent directly from a
computer can be received on the machine after being authenticated. The
authentication information pre-configured on a client's fax print driver is cross-checked
with the information registered on the machine.
Remote Authentication
Remote Authentication uses a remote authentication server to manage authentication.
No user information is registered on the machine.
