2.5 Setting the Authentication Method
When access to the machine by the Administrator of the machine through the Administrator Settings from
the control panel is authenticated, the machine enables setting of the authentication method for User Authen-
tication and for Account Track.
The User Authentication method may be [ON (MFP)] that uses the authentication system the machine has,
[ON (External Server)] that uses a user information control system of the external server, or [OFF]. If the En-
hanced Security Mode is set to [ON], the authentication method should be operated by either [ON (MFP)] or
[ON (External Server)] (Active Directory).
The Account Track authentication method may be set to [ON] or [OFF]. If [ON] is selected, two or more users
may be classified into different groups for control.
It is also possible to synchronize User Authentication with Account Track. Selecting "Synchronize" for "Syn-
chronize User Authentication & Account Track" allows the machine to be used only through User Authenti-
cation.
NOTICE
Changing the Account Track setting erases all user and account information data that has previously been
registered. This changes all Personal User Boxes owned by the users who are deleted and all Group User
Boxes owned by the accounts that are deleted to Public User Boxes. If the password set for a particular box
before this change does not meet the requirements of the Password Rules, however, no access can be made
to the Public User Box, to which that specific box was changed. In this case, the Administrator must first new-
ly set a password that meets the requirements of the Password Rules. For details of the Password Rules, see
page 1-8.
If [ON (External Server)] is selected for the authentication method, be sure to select [Active Directory] in the
External Server Settings.
