The printer can be set so that operation is impossible without administrator authentication.
The printer can be set to prohibit operation without administrator authentication and also prohibit remote
registration in the Address Book by a service representative.
We maintain strict security when handling customers' data. Administrator authentication prevents us from
operating the printer without administrator permission.

Service Mode Lock
Service
mode is used by a service representative for inspection or repair. If you set the service mode
lock to [On], service mode cannot be used unless the machine administrator logs on to the printer and
cancels the service mode lock to allow the service representative to operate the printer for inspection
and repair. This ensures that the inspection and repair are done under the supervision of the machine
administrator.
