Security scenarios
Scenario: Printer in a public place
To provide simple protection for a printer located in a public space, such as a lobby, use a password and PIN.
Administrators can assign a single password or PIN for all authorized users of the device, or separate codes to protect
individual functions. Anyone who knows a password or PIN can access any functions protected by that code.
Setting up simple‑security devices
1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Panel PIN Protect.
2 Enter a user PIN, and then reenter the PIN to confirm it.
3 Enter an administrator PIN, and then reenter the PIN to confirm it.
4 Click Modify.
5 Select the appropriate security template setting for each function you want to protect.
6 Click Submit.
Notes:
• When an access control is set to user PIN, any administrator PIN set for your printer is valid for that access
control. For more information, see
“Simple-security device access controls” on page 8.
• You can also create a Web Page password for the administrator to restrict access to the security settings. For
more information, see
“Creating a Web page password and applying access control restrictions” on page 8.
Setting up advanced‑security devices
1 Create a building block password or PIN.
a From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup.
b Under Advanced Security Setup, click either PIN or Password, and then configure it.
c Click Submit.
Note: For more information, see
“Creating a password building block for advanced security setup” on page 11 and
“Creating a PIN building block for advanced security setup” on page 11.
2 Create a security template.
a From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup > Security Template > Add a Security
Template.
b Type a security template name containing up to 128 characters. It can be helpful to use a descriptive name,
such as ”Administrator_Only” or “Common_Functions_Template.”
c From the Authentication Setup menu list, select the PIN or password created in step 1.
d Save the template.
3 Assign security templates to access controls.
a From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup > Access Controls.
