PURPOSE OF THE KEY OPERATOR
PROGRAMS
The key operator programs are used by the administrator of the machine to enable or disable functions to suit the
needs of your workplace.
This manual explains only the key operator programs that are common to all the functions of the machine, (copy, fax,
printer and network scanner functions), as well as key operator programs that are specifically for the copy function.
For programs that are specifically for the fax function, printer function, or network scanner function, see the following
manuals:
●Fax . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Operation manual (for facsimile), chapter 8
●Printer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Operation manual (for printer), chapter 6
●Network scanner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Operation manual (for network scanner), page 39
Key operator programs can only be accessed after a key operator code number has been entered.
Programs related to all functions of the machine (copy, fax, printer, and
network scanner functions)
These programs are used to enable auditing mode, adjust power consumption, and manage peripheral devices.
Programs for the copy function
These programs are used to change the factory default copy settings to settings that better suit the needs of your
workplace.
Programming a key operator code
The key operator code is a 5-digit number that must be entered in order to access the key operator programs. The
key operator (administrator of the machine) should change the default key operator code that was set at the factory
to a new 5-digit number. Be sure to remember the new key operator code, as it must be entered each time the key
operator programs are subsequently used. (Only one key operator code can be programmed.)
The key operator code is initially set to "00000" at the factory.
To change the key operator code, see "USING THE KEY OPERATOR PROGRAMS" on page 3.
