In order to increase the security of the MFP, and to ensure that the customer sets the administrator password, an administrator set/change prompt display is shown at the first power-up.

Overview
  • The following Program/Change Administrator screen is displayed at the first power-up.
  • When the customers set the administrator/supervisor login password, the display disappears and the home display will appear. The customers, however, can erase this screen with the following procedure in the case that they think there is no need to set the password.
  1. On the Program/Change Administrator screen, press [Change] next to Supervisor and then touch [OK] without inputting any password.
  2. Touch [OK] again when the Confirm password display shows up.
  3. For Administrator 1, do the same procedure as steps 1 and 2.
  4. Press the [OK] button, and then turn the power OFF/ON.

SP5-755-002 (Display Setting: Hide Administrator Password Change Scrn) allows you to skip this screen temporarily and continue the installation procedure without setting an administrator password. However, the Program/Change Administrator screen appears every time you turn the power OFF/ON, if the password is not set.

For how to enter SP mode, see the note at the end of the Password Setting Procedure.

Password Setting Procedure

For more details about this security issue, see "Notes on Using Multi-Function Printers Safely" supplied with the MFP.

When Supervisor / Administrator 1-4 passwords are configured via network, the "Change Supervisor login password" window won't display.

The passwords for Supervisor or Administrator 1 to 4 can be set via "System Settings". But the Program/Change Administrator screen appears every time the power switch is turned ON if the passwords are input this way. So we recommend the customers to set the passwords via network or the Program/Change Administrator screen.

  1. Install the machine.
  2. Turn ON the main power.
    The password change display appears.
  3. Press [Change] and change the supervisor login password.
  4. Input the password, and then press [OK].
  5. Confirm the password, and then press [OK].
  6. Change the administrator 1 login password.
  7. Input the password, and then press [OK].
  8. Confirm the password, and then press [OK].
  9. Turn the main power OFF and back ON again.

To enter the SP mode, there are two ways to display the number keyboard on screen;

1. Press the "Document Server" icon.

2. Press and hold the button [A] located at the left side of the operation panel and "Check Status [B]" at the same time.
