Administrator Authentication; Specifying Administrator Privileges - Ricoh C23535 Operating Instructions Manual

Administrator Authentication

Administrators are handled differently from the users registered in the address
book. When registering an administrator, you cannot use a login user name al-
ready registered in the address book. Windows Authentication, LDAP Authen-
tication and Integration Server Authentication are not performed for an
administrator, so an administrator can log on even if the server is unreachable
because of a network problem.
Each administrator is identified by a login user name. One person can act as
more than one type of administrator if multiple administrator authority is grant-
ed to a single login user name.
You can specify the login user name, login password, and encryption password
for each administrator.
The encryption password is a password for performing encryption when speci-
fying settings using Web Image Monitor or SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
The password registered in the machine must be entered when using applica-
tions such as SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
Administrators are limited to managing the machine's settings and controlling
user access. so they cannot use functions such as copying and printing. To use
such functions, you need to register a user in the address book and then be au-
thenticated as the user.
Note
❒ Administrator authentication can also be specified via Web Image Monitor.
For details see the Web Image Monitor Help.

Specifying Administrator Privileges

To specify administrator authentication, set Administrator Authentication Man-
agement to [On]. You can also specify whether or not to manage the items in Sys-
tem Settings as an administrator.
To log on as an administrator, use the default login user name and login pass-
word.
The defaults are "admin" for the login name and blank for the password.
Important
❒ If you have enabled [Administrator Authentication Management], make sure not to
forget the administrator login user name and login password. If an adminis-
trator login user name or login password is forgotten, a new password must
be specified using the supervisor's authority.
