3.1 User authentication function 3 3 User Operations 3.1 User authentication function When [ON (MFP)], [ON (Main + External Server)], or [ON (External Server)] (Active Directory) is set for Authentication Method of the Administrator Mode, the machine authenticates a user as an authorized user of this machine through the user password that meets the password rules before he or she actually uses it. During the authentication procedure, the user password entered for the authentication purpose appears as "*" or "" on the display. Before the authentication, the user can detect the status of MFP, make settings for the display and other functions, check the firmware version, display jobs, and receive a fax. After authentication by a user is successful using the user name and password entered from the control panel with the ID & Print Setting function set in the machine, the user can automatically print his or her print data saved in the ID & Print user box. Because printing occurs after user authentication is performed via the control panel of this machine, it is suitable for printing highly confidential documents. Operate the machine with the ID & Print Setting function set. When the [Enhanced Security Mode] is set to [ON], the number of times in which authentication fails is counted. NOTICE If [ON (MFP)] is set for the authentication method and [Pause] is set for a user by the administrator, that particular user cannot log onto the machine. For details, contact the administrator. The user who is given the administrative right by the administrator can access the Administrator Mode when logging on as the user administrator. For details of logging-on, see page 2-2. If a screen appears that warns that the job log has reached its upper limit, contact the administrator. For the user administrator, the number of failed authentication attempts is counted as access by the same user, independent of the mode in the Administrator Mode or the User Mode that the user logs on to. If the machine is set into the access lock state by the operation of the user administrator, the user administrator cannot log on to the Administrator Mode or the User Mode. To cancel the access lock state, the administrator must perform the Release Setting. Contact the administrator. 3.1.1 Performing user authentication 0 Before operating the machine, the user him/herself should change the user password from that registered by the administrator. For details of changing the user password, see page 3-6. For details of user name and user password, ask the administrator. 0 If the user password is changed by the administrator during operation of this machine, the user him/herself should immediately change the user password. 0 Make absolutely sure that your user password is not known by any other users. 0 Do not leave the machine while you are in the user operation mode. If it is absolutely necessary to leave the machine, be sure first to log off from the user operation mode. 0 If the external server performs user authentication, a user name that is not registered with the machine is automatically registered. bizhub C360i/C300i/C250i/C036DNi/C030DNi/C025DNi 3-2
