3 User Operations
3.1 User Authentication Function
When [ON (MFP)] or [ON (External Server)] (Active Directory) is set for Authentication Method of the
Administrator Settings, the User Authentication function implements authentication of the user of this
machine before he or she actually uses it through the User Password that consists of 8 to 64 digits. During
the authentication procedure, the User Password entered for the authentication purpose appears as "*" or
"
●" on the display. When the Enhanced Security Mode is set to [ON], the number of times in which
authentication fails is counted.
