Specification & Installation Guide

Administrator Authentication

A service representative is supposed to set up an
authentication data for an administrator. According
to this authentication data, the administrator gains
authorized access by entering the administrator
password. Only one authentication string can be
registered per machine.
Administrator Setting Mode
The machine enters the administrator setting mode when
password authentication is successfully made by the
administrator. In the administrator setting mode, setting
change of various machine functions is available.
With the Enhanced Security mode activated, the machine
rejects any setting change in [06 Administrator Setting] –
[01 System Setting] – [02 Date/Time Setting] on the Utility
Menu Screen.
Be sure to exit the administrator setting mode if you leave
in front of the machine while using this mode.
USB Port Functions
The following functions are still available using a USB port
even when the Enhanced Security mode is activated.
• USB Memory ISW
• Printing charts via USB (for CE)
• Keyboard, mouse
Printer
Using the printer controller which supports the Enhanced
Security mode, you can store the print data in the internal
memory or on the HDD by entering a user name from
the printer driver. The stored data can be output after
successful authentication of the user name with its
corresponding password entered from the printer driver
when the data was stored. Please note that the stored
data can potentially be output by others if you use
somebody else's user name to store the print data.
For details of the printer controller and printer driver
which support the Enhanced Security mode, contact
your service representative.
For the operation procedure of the printer controller or
printer driver, please refer to the user's guide for each.
Data Protected by the Enhanced Security Mode
Enhanced Security mode improves the security of data
for users. Such data includes:
• Data stored within a personal folder
(with password)
Also, the following data managed by the administrator
is better secured:
• User data
• Data to manage the machine
Data Exempted from the Protection
of Enhanced Security Mode
When the machine is connected to PCs on a local
network, passwords entered from PCs are not subject
to the Enhanced Security mode. Please do not enter
any password from such PCs for prevention of leakage.
Turning Enhanced Security Mode ON/OFF
The administrator is responsible for turning the Enhanced
Security mode ON/OFF.
The administrator should never fail to activate the
Enhanced Security mode. Please be especially careful
when turning the Enhanced Security mode OFF, being
aware that data can potentially be accessed.
Protecting and Deleting of Remaining Data
After Being Used
Data from copy, scan, and printer modes are stored
temporarily into memory or HDD, and then deleted after
being used if there was no operation such as storing
them into a user box.
The data is compressed in a special way and generally
it cannot be externally decompressed. When compressed
data is deleted, a part of the data is either destroyed
or overwritten and will not be able to be decompressed.
• The data temporarily stored in memory will be
overwritten with invalid data when the job is
interrupted
or ended.
• The data stored in several areas of memory will
be overwritten with invalid data simultaneously.
