Users And Passwords
The NIC supports two user types:
root
Access to everything within the print server
including all configurable settings.
guest
Ability to list settings only.
Passwords can be set for each user type. However, most often you
will just set a password for the
root
user to protect the NIC
configuration.
Guest
users cannot alter the print server
configuration in any way.
To configure a
root
password on your NIC:
1. Load a Web browser on a network station that can
communicate with the print server over TCP/IP. The
commands to set a
root
password are:
Syntax:
set user passwd username password
save
Example:
set user passwd root your_password_for_root
save
