User Setting Information Management (User Setting Information Management Service)

This setting saves user information such as the user name and password that is set for each function by each user.
For example, if user A selected encrypted PDF for the file format when sending an e-mail and then sets a password in [Password Required to Open a Document] or [Password Required to Change Permiss.], the User Setting Information Management Service links the password (User Setting Information) set by user A with user A in User Authentication. Next time user A uses encrypted PDF, the settings screen for encrypted PDF is displayed with the password already entered, and the user does not have to enter the password.
The user setting information that this setting can associate with User Authentication is indicated below.
Password information used for encrypted PDF (See "Encrypting PDF Files" and "Printing Password Protected PDF Files.")
User name and password information used for SMTP Authentication (See "Specifying Authentication Method for SMTP Server.")
User name and password information used for the network storage location (See "Accessing the Advanced Space of Another Machine.")
Information of the buttons on the Quick Menu (See "Keys on the Quick Menu Screen.")
User name and password used for LDAP server authentication (See "Specifying Authentication Method for LDAP Server.")
User name and password used for File TX/Browsing authentication (See "Specifying Authentication Method for File Server.")
User name and password used for the Personal Folder authentication (See "Specifying Personal Folders.")
If User Authentication is enabled, user setting information is automatically associated with user information and registered without you having to perform any special operations.
Registered information can only be deleted on the User Setting Information Management Service page.
IMPORTANT
To use the User Setting Information Management Service page, set [Use HTTP] in [Preferences] (Settings/Registration) to 'On.' (See "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6.")
The amount of user information that can be registered is as follows:
Quick Menu button information: 5,000 items
User name/password information: 200 items
When setting the folder specified by the login service as a personal folder: 5,000 items
Maximum number of other items: 200 items
