When the data security kit is installed

Protecting passwords

When the data security kit is installed, passwords entered from the operation
panel of the machine or the Web pages can be protected.
Administrator Password/User Password
When the data security kit is installed, if an incorrect administrator
password is entered 3 times in a row when the user authentication
function is not enabled, or if an incorrect administrator password or user
password is entered 3 times in a row when the user authentication
function is enabled, authentication for the administrator or user who
entered the incorrect password will be prohibited for 5 minutes.
For more information, see "About the lockout function" (page 16 of this
manual)
Confidential folders and confidential files of the document
filing function
If an incorrect password is entered 3 times in a row for a specific
confidential folder or file, the folder or file will be locked. To unlock the
folder or file, use "Release Operation Lock Status (File/Folder)" (page 23
of this manual).
All files with the same user name and password can be printed at once
using the Batch Print feature of the document filing function.
Files that have a password different from the password that was
entered at the time of the search will be treated as files for which an
incorrect password was entered. For this reason, it is recommended
that you avoid executing searches using [All Users] and [User
Unknown] in so far as is possible.
When the use of a file is prohibited, the following will apply when the
document filing function is used:
When batch print is performed, a prohibited file will not be printed
even if it matches the search conditions.
File search screen of document filing
When the data security kit is installed, the password entry setting will not
appear in the document filing search screen.
