Securing printers 33 Note: For simple authorization‑level security, which uses no individual authentication, administrators can control access to functions by assigning only a password or PIN to a security template. Users are required to enter the correct code to access any function controlled by the password or PIN. Step 3: Assign security templates to access controls After assigning a security template, users are required to provide the appropriate credentials to access any functions assigned with a security template. 1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup > Access Controls. Note: If necessary, click Expand All to view all access controls, or select a folder to view specific access controls for the selected access control group. 2 For each function you want to protect, select a security template from the drop‑down menu next to the name of that function. 3 Click Submit to save the changes, or Reset Form to cancel all changes. Notes: • To help prevent unauthorized access, log out from the printer after each session. • For a list of individual access controls, see "Appendix D: Access controls" on page 84.
