rized use of your machine.
These security features include: (1) operation protection, (2) security reception,
(3) PIN mask, (4) security transmission, (5) closed network, (6) block junk fax, and
(7) department codes.

Decide on the four-digit passcode (0001–9999) you want to use. Write it down,
and put it in a safe place.
