Administrator Setting | [User Authentication]

[User Authentication]

Manage users who use this system.

You can perform [User Authentication] to restrict the available functions or enhance the security for each user.

This is convenient when multiple users share this system because the functions that can be operated by each user can be restricted.

NOTICE

The following setting is required to use this function.

Tips

In case of [ON (MFP)], perform [User Authentication] on the system.
In case of [External Server Authentication], perform [User Authentication] on the external server.
When selecting [External Server Authentication] using [Authentication Method], if the external server to be connected is not displayed, redo [Set as Default] starting from [External Server Settings].

Reference

For details about [External Server Settings], refer to [External Server Settings].
