Restricting the Users Who Can Print

This section describes the procedure for specifying the settings using the Remote UI. To specify the settings using FTP Client, see "FTP Client."

NOTE
When restricting printing Only printing is restricted, but accessing the Remote UI is not restricted. If restricted users try to print, the message <Cannot Print> appears in the Printer Status Window. There are some items which restricted users cannot select from the [Options] menu in the Printer Status Window.

Start the Remote UI, and then log in as Administrator.

Select [Information] from the [Device Manager] menu.

Click [Change] under [Security].

Select the [Restrict TCP/IP Printing] check box.

Select [Permit Specified Addresses] or [Reject Specified Addresses].

[Permit Specified Addresses]	Only users specified in [IP Addresses] can perform printing.
[Reject Specified Addresses]	Users specified in [IP Addresses] cannot perform printing.

Set the IP address.

(1)

Enter the IP address of a computer for which you permit or reject printing.

Enter the IP address by separating the numbers with "." (period), for example, AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD.

(2)

Click [Add].

You can also enter IP addresses as follows.

Input Example of the IP Addresses	Method for Entering IP Addresses
AAA.BBB.CCC.15-AAA.BBB.CCC.18	If you want to enter the IP addresses of consecutive numbers, place "-" (hyphen) between the address of the smallest number and that of the largest number. The example on the left is equivalent to entering addresses from AAA.BBB.CCC.15 to AAA.BBB.CCC.18.
AAA.BBB.CCC.*	Entering "*" (asterisk) is equivalent to entering the numbers from 0 to 255. The example on the left is equivalent to entering addresses from AAA.BBB.CCC.0 to AAA.BBB.CCC.255.

	You can set IP addresses of up to 255 characters.
	<Counting example of the number of characters> "192.168.0.215" = 13 characters "192.168.0.215-192.168.0.218" = 27 characters

NOTE

(1)	Select an IP address you want to delete.
(2)	Click [Delete].

Click [OK].
