Keeping things secure

Your machine has a number of features to enhance the security of your fax commu- nications. These security features can help you keep your private fax documents private, avoid unwanted outside communication and even protect against unautho- rized use of your machine.

The key to it all — the passcode

Your machine has a protection passcode system which is central to the machine’s security capabilities. Normally, this four-digit passcode is set to 0000 (four zeroes). This turns off passcode operation. But, if you set the passcode to anything besides 0000, this passcode provides access to a number of other security options, which we’ll describe in the following pages.

To set your machine’s passcode:

1 Decide upon, and then write down the four-digit passcode (0001–9999)you want to use and put it in a safe place.

Important: Do not use 0000. This turns off passcode protection.

2 Press PROGRAM, J, 1, 5, ENTER. The LCD will show:

Protect Passcode

Old Passcode :****

3 If you are creating the passcode, use the numeric keypad to enter 0000. If you are modifying an existing passcode, enter the existing passcode.

4 Press ENTER.

5 Enter the desired four-digit passcode. Here, we’ve entered 6296:

Protect Passcode

New Passcode :6296

6 Press ENTER to save the passcode.

Note: Any time you want to turn off the passcode, change the passcode back to 0000 by repeating steps 2–6 and entering 0000 in step 5.

Beyond the basics

Locking up tight — operation protection

Important: For this feature to work, you must have set the passcode, as described in the left column.

Because this is a powerful machine you have here — and, besides, you’re paying for its phone calls — you may not want just anybody to use it. That’s why we’ve pro- vided operation protection. When this feature is activated, only users who enter the correct passcode (see “The key to it all: the password,” left column) can send faxes from the machine or change the machine’s settings.

Activating operation protection

1 Press PROGRAM, J, 1, 6, ENTER. The LCD shows:

Set Opr. Protect

Enter Passcode :****

2 Use the numeric keypad to enter the passcode. Here, we’ve entered 6296:

Set Opr. Protect

Enter Passcode :6296

3 Press ENTER. The LCD shows:

Opr.Protect: Off

Program/Enter

4 If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 6. Otherwise, proceed to step 5.

5 To change the setting, press PROGRAM once or twice until your desired setting appears. In this example, we’ve chosen “On.”

Opr.Protect: On

Program/Enter

6 Press ENTER to save the setting.
