Setting System Management Mode

The System Management mode enables the administrator to restrict access to the System Settings by setting the System Manager ID and System Password.
IMPORTANT
If User ID Management is enabled, only users registered as “System Manager” can change the System Settings by logging in to the machine with their User ID and password. In this case, you cannot log in as the System Manager by entering the System Manager ID and System Password.

Specifying the System Manager Settings

Follow the procedure below to set the System Manager ID and System Password.
IMPORTANT
Attaching the optional Copy Card Reader-F1 and specifying the card IDs to be used restore the System Manger ID and System Password to their defaults (‘7654321’).
You must set both System Manager ID and System Password to manage the operations of the machine.
If the Language Switch setting is set to ‘On’, some characters are restricted and cannot be entered. To enter all characters, set the Language Switch setting to ‘Off’. (Configuring the Machine's Basic Settings)
NOTE
If the optional Copy Card Reader-F1 is attached, 1000 sequential numbers used as the card IDs cannot be used for the System Manager ID.
