1. Run the web browser.
2. In Address or Location, enter the machine IP address as the URL,
e.g. http://192.168.10.150/. Select a category from the navigation bar on the left to view and set values for that
category.

Admin password

Setting Administrator Password restricts general users' access to pages other than the Start page. For security purposes, setting the Administrator password is highly recommended. With some models, the default Administrator password is factory-set as admin00.

When this button is not displayed, click a page other than the Start page.) The password input window is displayed. Entering the predefined administrator password allows the user to access all pages.
For how to define the administrator password, refer to Basic > Security > Account Settings on page 11.
Setting Authentication allows only the predefined users to access pages. In addition, you can discriminate users by giving either the General User or Administrator privilege to each user. Before using the authentication function, you have to define th ose users. For how to define users, refer to Basic > Security > User Login on page 13. When a user sets authentication and accesses COMMAND CENTER, only the Start page is displayed. The Login button is displayed in the upper left of th e screen. Click it to log in. When the user logs in with an Administrator account, hidden pages are displayed and can be accessed. When the user logs in with a General User account, the user can access the user's account page on Basic > Security > User Login and the user's document box and shared document box pages. The authentication function come in two types: Local Authentication and Network
Authentication. For more information, refer to Advanced > Management > Authentication on page 44.
