Administrator
There are four types of administrators according to administrative function: machine administrator,
network administrator, file administrator, and user administrator. We recommend that only one person
takes each administrator role.
In this way, you can spread the workload and limit unauthorized operation by a single administrator.
Basically, administrators make machine settings and manage the machine; but they cannot perform
normal operations, such as copying and printing.
User
A user performs normal operations on the machine, such as copying and printing.
Registered User
Users with personal information registered in the Address Book who have a login password and user
name.
Administrator Authentication
Administrators are authenticated by their login user name and login password, supplied by the
administrator, when specifying the machine's settings or accessing the machine over the network.
User Authentication
Users are authenticated by a login user name and login password, supplied by the user, when
specifying the machine's settings or accessing the machine over the network.
The user's login user name and password, as well as such personal information items as facsimile
number, are stored in the machine's Address Book. Personal information can be obtained from the
Windows domain controller (Windows authentication), LDAP Server (LDAP authentication), or
Integration Server (Integration Server authentication) connected to the machine via the network. The
"Integration Server" is the computer on which Authentication Manager is installed.
Login
This action is required for administrator authentication and user authentication. Enter your login user
name and login password on the machine's control panel. A login user name and login password
may also be required when accessing the machine over the network or using such utilities as Web
Image Monitor and SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
Logout
This action is required with administrator and user authentication. This action is required when you
have finished using the machine or changing the settings.
