Security scenarios
Scenario: Printer in a public place
To provide simple protection for a printer located in a public space, such as a lobby, use a password and PIN.
Administrators can assign a single password or PIN for all authorized users of the device, or separate codes to protect
individual functions. Anyone who knows a password or PIN can access any functions protected by that code.
