Overview of Authentication and Accounting Feature
This section overviews the Authentication feature and the Accounting feature.
Using authentication feature allows you to restrict the access to the machine, restrict the
use of each service, and count the use of services per user.

Types of User
When the Authentication feature is enabled, users are classified into the following three
types.
Note • When the Authentication feature is disabled, users are classified as either system administrator or
local user.
„
System Administrator
The system administrator can register and change system settings to adapt to the
environment to be used.
A system administrator uses a specific user ID called a system administrator's user ID.
„
Login User
A Login User is a user registered on the machine or a remote server.
To use restricted services, enter the user ID and passcode on the screen.
A user ID of a login user can be associated with some sub users in accordance with the
intended use.
Note • An optional component is required to use the sub user feature. For more information, contact our
Customer Support Center.
„
Unregistered User
An unregistered User is a user not registered on the machine.
An unregistered user cannot use restricted services.
User Roles and Authorization Groups
You can select a user role and an authorization group for each user.
For a user registered on a remote server, these settings are effective only when ApeosWare
Authentication Management, ApeosWare Authentication Agent, or LDAP is used.
When using LDAP, configure the settings on CentreWare Internet Services.
Important • When [Login Type] is set to [Login to Local Accounts], and [Accounting Type] is set to [Network
Accounting], an authorization group cannot be assigned to a user. Therefore, the features
configured for the authorization group, such as the feature to temporarily disable forcible printing,
are not available.
User Roles
Set the scope of administration authority for each login user. The authority of system
administrator or account administrator can be given to a specified login user.
