Installing user authentication or account track enables you to restrict available functions by user or account. For example, you can configure settings so that printing is available for a specific user or account track but not available for other users or account tracks. Also, you can configure settings to restrict printing for users who are not identified by this machine (public users). Configuring settings based on business requirements of users or account tracks helps to reduce costs.
For details, refer to Restricting Available Functions.
Installing user authentication or account track enables you to restrict the maximum number of printed sheets by user or account. You can manage the upper limit of printed sheets by user or account depending on the usage of this machine to develop an awareness of costs and work to reduce costs.
For details, refer to Managing the Maximum Number of Printable Pages.
