In the Active Directory environment, the procedures for setting up users differ from the above. For more information, see the Windows manual.
When a computer that one or more users log on to is restricted by the administrator in an Active Directory environment, the name of the computer must be registered in the Active Directory. Set the computer name in the user account properties dialog box to "CANON + the last 8 digits of the MAC address of the computer + 00".
