Authentication is cancelled if no operation is performed on the machine within a certain time after authentication completes. In this case, you need to perform user authentication again before you can use the machine. The

system administrator can specify the ID Timeout Period. See "ID Timeout Setting" on page 17 for details.

The system administrator can specify whether authentication is required independently for each machine function (copying, faxing, scanning, and printing).

See "Authentication Setting" on page 13 for details.
