Image Runner Advance DX C5840i

Hello all, trying to figure out the easiest way to prevent unauthorized copy making on this printer.  All I want to do is password protect the tough screen on the machine.  The printing from the computers is fine, and I don't want to change that.  Using Macs in the office with this printer if that information is required.  Thank you in advance.

Hi Leon,

you can activate "user authorization" and then add a User with a password f.e.
Or you can switch the behaviour and choose the "dept. ID authorization" in the SMS menu (Service Management Service) on the web-UI and add department IDs, so that you can log on with them.
