Administrator Authentication
Administrators are handled differently from the users registered in the Address Book. When registering an
administrator, you cannot use a login user name already registered in the Address Book. Windows
Authentication, LDAP Authentication and Integration Server Authentication are not performed for an
administrator, so an administrator can log on even if the server is unreachable due to a network problem.
Each administrator is identified by a login user name. One person can act as more than one type of
administrator if multiple administrator authorities are granted to a single login user name. You can specify
the login user name, login password, and encryption password for each administrator. The encryption
password is a password for performing encryption when specifying settings using Web Image Monitor or
SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
The password registered in the machine must be entered when using applications such as
SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
Administrators are limited to managing the machine's settings and controlling user access, so they cannot
use functions such as copying and printing. To use these functions, the administrator must register as a user
in the Address Book and then be authenticated as the user.
• Administrator authentication can also be specified via Web Image Monitor. For details see Web
Image Monitor Help.
Specifying Administrator Privileges
To specify administrator authentication, set Administrator Authentication Management to [On]. In addition,
if enabled in the settings, you can choose how the initial settings are divided among the administrators as
controlled items.
To log on as an administrator, use the default login user name and login password.
The defaults are "admin" for the login name and blank for the password. For details about changing the
administrator password using the supervisor's authority, see "Supervisor Operations".
For details about logging on and logging off with administrator authentication, see "Logging on Using
Administrator Authentication", "Logging off Using Administrator Authentication".
• If you have enabled [Administrator Authentication Management], make sure not to forget the
administrator login user name and login password. If an administrator login user name or login
password is forgotten, a new password must be specified using the supervisor's authority.
