Security

The HP Digital Sender 8100C operates as a stand-alone unit on the
network. You administer each digital sender independently of any
other device on the network under a password that applies only to
that digital sender.

The digital sender accepts three types of users:

registered users
Individuals who have created their own user profile on the digital
sender. Only registered users have personal e-mail address
books and lists that are accessible at the digital sender.

guest users
Individuals who are not registered users and who do not have
user profiles. Guest users can use the digital sender and all
public address books. However, they cannot see or use personal
address books. The administrator can disable guest user access.

administrator for the digital sender
The individual (referred to as the “administrator” in this guide)
who performs administrator activities for the digital sender.
Because the digital sender is a stand-alone unit on the network,
these activities can be performed independently of any other
network activity. Network administrator privileges for the digital
sender do not require network privileges. Activities include such
things as establishing the level of security for the digital sender
and maintaining the public address books. The administrator has
access to all personal address books.

The administrator controls digital sender security in these ways:

Determining who can use the digital sender (registered users and
guest users, or only registered users).

Requiring passwords. Passwords are available at two levels:
administrator and registered users. Both are optional. Passwords
control what each type of user can see and do at the digital
sender.

Enabling or disabling self-registration for users. If disabled, only
the administrator can add or modify user profiles.
