Setting the Administrator Password

Only the administrator (user who knows the password) can configure the settings or perform the operations related to the printer management by setting the administrator password.
Also, the administrator password can be changed anytime.
This section describes the procedure for specifying the settings using the Remote UI.
In the Remote UI, you can specify the settings by accessing the printer from a Web browser via a network.
IMPORTANT
Be sure to remember the password that you have set. If you have forgotten the password, contact your local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line.
