You can safeguard entry to menus by creating passwords and choosing specific menus to protect. Each time a protected menu is selected, the user will be prompted to enter the correct password.
To protect printer menus using the Embedded Web Server:
Type the printer IP address into the address field of your Web browser.
| Note: If you do not know the IP address of the printer, then print a network setup page and locate the IP address in the TCP/IP section. |
Click Settings.
Under Other Settings, click Security.
Click Web Page Password Protect. It is possible to protect entry to the Paper, Reports, Settings, and Network/Ports menus.
From this screen, you may set a User Password and an Advanced Password. Determine which password will access each menu. You may also choose not to protect a menu.
| Note: The Security menu is always password-protected when either an Advanced Password or a User Password has been set. If both passwords have been set, then only the Advanced Password is valid for access to the Security menu mode. |
Click Submit to save your settings.
