1. Getting Started Administrators Administrators manage user access to the machine and various other important functions and settings. When an administrator controls limited access and settings, first select the machine's administrator and enable the authentication function before using the machine. When the authentication function is enabled, the login user name and login password are required in order to use the machine. The role of administrator for this machine is divided into four categories according to their function, user administrator, machine administrator, network administrator, and file administrator. Sharing administrator tasks eases the burden on individual administrators while at the same time limiting unauthorized operations by an administrator. Multiple administrator roles can be assigned to one administrator and one role can also be shared by more than one administrator. A supervisor can also be set up, who can then change the administrators' passwords. Administrators cannot use functions such as copying and printing. To use these functions, the administrator must be authenticated as the user. For instructions on registering the administrator, see p.18 "Registering and Changing Administrators", and for instructions on changing the administrator's password, see p.25 "Supervisor". For details on Users, see p.29 "Users". • If user authentication is not possible because of a problem with the hard disk or network, you can use the machine by accessing it using administrator authentication and disabling user authentication. Do this if, for instance, you need to use the machine urgently. 14
