You can specify the settings related to the user authentication function, password, and encryption.
<Prohibit Authentication Using Department ID and PIN>
<Management Settings> <Security Settings> <Authentication/Password Settings> <Authentication Function Settings>
Select whether to prohibit authentication with a Department ID and PIN when operating from the printer/scanner. If <On> is selected, authentication with System Manager ID and PIN is also prohibited when operating from a device management software.
Jobs that are restricted by this setting are forcibly canceled on the machine.
<Lockout Settings>
<Management Settings> <Security Settings> <Authentication/Password Settings> <Authentication Function Settings>
Select whether to block users from logging in for a specified period of time after a certain number of consecutive invalid login attempts. This setting does not apply to authentication with a Department ID or PIN, or authentication for the Mail Box.
Users may be blocked from logging in before a specified number of consecutive invalid login attempts if login operations are performed on Windows or other operating systems, or from applications that use FTP, IPP, SNMPv3, SMB, or WebDAV.
You can set the minimum number of characters required when registering a password to prevent the simplification of passwords. When a password length is set, a user cannot be registered with a blank password.
This setting applies to personal authentication management, not to Department ID and PIN.
