Using an administrator password
Setting an administrator password deters unauthorized persons from changing
configuration settings. If you are responsible for maintaining the settings of
several computers, you might want to set an administrator password.
After you set an administrator password, a password prompt appears each
time you try to access the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If you type
the wrong password, you receive a message telling you so. If you type the
wrong password three times, you must turn the computer off and start again.
If both a power-on and administrator password are set, you can type either
password. However, in order to change any settings, you must use your
administrator password. If you enter the power-on password, you will only be
able to view limited information.
Setting, deleting, or changing an administrator password
An administrator password can be any combination of up to seven characters
(A-Z, a-z, and 0-9).
