User Authentication and Security
Depending on the authentication settings of the printer, you may be prompted to enter a user name and password to change the settings.
- Changing the Settings
  You will be prompted to enter a user name and password if [Enabled] is selected under the [Properties] tab > [Administrator Security Settings] > [Administrator Mode].
  If prompted, enter the administrator login ID and password registered on the printer.

  Saving Non-alphanumeric Characters
  The printer uses Unicode UTF-8 to save characters. In general, UTF-8 requires 2 to 4 bytes to save a non-alphanumeric character.
  Therefore, if you enter non-alphanumeric characters in text boxes, the entire characters may not be saved even if they are displayed in text boxes.
