Disabling "Administrator"

A user with "Administrator" as the user name is registered by default as the user with administrator privileges. This "Administrator" user cannot be deleted but it can be disabled after adding another user with "Administrator" privileges. If the "Administrator" user is disabled, you cannot change settings that only the "Administrator" user can configure, on the control panel of the machine.

[Change Password at Next Login]

Select this check box to force registered users to change their passwords the first time they log in. Once a user has changed their password, the check box is cleared automatically.

Enter the name of the user. The display name is displayed as the user name for forced hold printing and used as the sender name when sending e-mail.

[E-Mail Address:]

Enter the e-mail address that the user is using on devices such as computers. When sending scanned documents, this address will be displayed along with the sender's name. This address is also used when sending documents by using <Send to Myself>.

When an I-fax is sent, the e-mail address registered here is displayed in the Sender line on the recipient device.

It is also possible for general users to change their own password.

Check for unregistered Department IDs If you click [Check Unregistered Department ID...] on the screen displayed in step 4, you can find out Department IDs that are not registered in the machine by checking Department IDs assigned to the users against Department IDs registered in the machine. Batch settings for Department IDs If you click [Batch Settings for Department ID...] on the screen displayed in step 4, you can create new Department IDs and apply settings for all users. If the user name is comprised of numbers and is seven digits or fewer, the same number is assigned to the same user as the Department ID. If the password of the same user is registered as a number that is seven digits or fewer, it is also set as the PIN for that Department ID. If the user name and password do not meet the above conditions, a Department ID is automatically assigned starting from 0000001, and 0 (none) is set for the PIN. Registering the Department ID as the User Name If you click [Add User Using Department ID...] on the screen in step 4, a new user with the same name as the Department ID is registered. When keyboard authentication is used, authentication can be performed using numeric key entry only.

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication

You can use two-factor authentication to increase the security of logging into the Remote UI by requiring a one-time password in addition to the password set in "Registering User Information."


To obtain a one-time password, a mobile app (Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator) must be installed to a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet. The time of the mobile device must also match that of the machine. Two-factor authentication can only be enabled for the user account that is logged in.

Start the Remote UI. Starting the Remote UI

Click [Settings/Registration] on the portal page. Remote UI Screen

Click [User Management]

[Authentication Management].

For a user with Administrator privileges, click [Edit] on the [User Management] screen.

Select [Use Two-Factor Authentication], and click [Update].

Start the mobile app and use it to scan the QR code displayed on the [Enable Two-Factor Authentication] screen of the Remote UI.

If you cannot scan the QR code, enter the key displayed in [Manual Entry Key:].

On the [One-Time Password:] screen, enter the one-time password displayed in the mobile app

click [Verify].

When account information has been lost or deleted
A QR code or key can be used to register or restore the account information from any mobile device. It is recommended that you take a photo or screenshot of the QR code or key displayed on the computer screen, in case the mobile device is lost or the account information registered in the mobile app is accidentally deleted. Store the photo or screenshot of the QR code or key carefully so that others cannot see it.

If the mobile device is lost or the account information registered to the mobile app is deleted and you do not have a photo or screenshot of the QR code or key, you will be unable to obtain a one-time password and therefore unable to log in to the Remote UI. In this case, ask a user with Administrator privileges to deselect [Use Two-Factor Authentication] so that you can log into the Remote UI.
