User Authentication Method
If you are an administrator, you can enable authentication service before
using the machine to improve security for the device. If user
authentication service has been activated, only authorized users can
use the device. With authentication service, you also can give
permission to each user and set the maximum number of job executions
for a user.
The authentication service and accounting service can be enabled
independently. The services refer to the user information differently case
by case.
