Creating an administrative password

Creating an administrative password allows a system support person to password-protect printer settings. Once a password is created, it must be entered to access the Configuration and Reports pages of the Embedded Web Server. An administrative password for the Embedded Web Server must be created before Secure mode can be activated.

1. Open a Web browser.

2. In the address bar, type the network printer or print server IP address, and then press Enter.

3. Click Configuration.

4. Under Other Settings, click Security.

5. Click Create Password.

6. Type the same password in each Password box.

   Changing this setting will cause the print server to reset.

7. Click Submit.
