Users Controlled by Authentication
The following explains the types of users controlled with the Authentication feature.
User information can be registered with the machine.
Users are classified into the following four types. The Authentication feature restricts
operations according to the user type.
îš„System Administrators
These are users who can register and change system settings.
A system administrator uses a specific user ID called System Administrator ID.
To enter the System Administration mode, type the System Administrator ID into the
user ID entry field on the authentication screen.
îš„Authenticated Users
These are users who are registered on the machine or a remote server.
When using a restricted service, an authenticated user is prompted to type the user ID
and passcode on the authentication screen.
Note • Users who are assigned the System Administrator privileges in the User Role setting have
almost the same privileges as the System Administrator. For more details, refer to "User
Role and Authorization Groups" (P.274).
îš„Unauthenticated Users
These are users who are not registered.
An unauthenticated user cannot use restricted services.
îš„General Users
These are users other than system administrators when the machine is not in the
authentication mode.
User Role and Authorization Groups
You can select a user role and an authorization group for each user registered with the
machine.
Important • When the authentication type is [Login to Local Accounts] and the accounting type is
[Network Accounting], the authorization group cannot be assigned to a user. Therefore, the
features configured for the authorization group, such as the feature to temporarily disable
force-printing, are not available.
User Role
The following three user-role types are available.
