Precautions for Use of Umlaut
-
The maximum number of digits allowed for the User Password is 64, if umlaut is used with all characters,
however, the maximum number of digits allowed becomes 32 digits.
- Setting or entering an umlaut from the control panel may be disabled depending on the setting made
in this machine, but not on the client PC side including Pagescope Web Connection. If an umlaut is set
in a password on the PC side, therefore, the umlaut cannot be entered from the control panel, which
means that this particular password is not usable.
