Setting When Using DepartmentID Authentication
When implementing Department ID Management with the DepartmentID Authentication, make sure that the administrator (system administrator) manages the Department IDs and PINs. To enhance security, log in with the system administrator's ID (System Manager ID) and make sure to change the system administrator's ID and PIN.
Which users become administrator or general users depends on whether Department ID Management and System Manager Settings are set, as indicated in the table below.
