2.3 – Access Control
Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems support a number of access control options to help you
manage the use of device settings and functions in addition to specific capabilities of certain
functions. Access control solutions for the imageRUNNER ADVANCE can help Authentication,
Authorization, and Auditing. Canon offers solutions that can lock down the entire device, or simply
lock down specific functions (e.g. Send-to-Email), while leaving other applications available for
general use. With the power and flexibility of MEAP, some solutions can be customized to meet your
specific requirements.
Password-Protected System Settings
As a standard feature, imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems setup screens support password
protection to restrict device setting changes from the control panel and Remote UI tool. System
Administrators can set network information, system configuration, enable, and disable network and
printing protocols among many other options. Canon highly recommends setting an administrator
password at time of installation since it controls critical device settings.

ccess Management System
The Access Management System, which is standard on imageRUNNER ADVANCE systems, can be used
to tightly control access to device functionality. Restrictions can be assigned to users and groups, to
restrict entire functions or restrict specific features within a function. Access restrictions are managed
in units called “roles”. Roles contain information that determines which of the various functions of
the device may be used or not.
Roles can be set up based on individual user’s job title or responsibilities or by group, enabling the
administrator to create roles specific to certain departments or workgroups. Since the administrator
is not limited to restricting all or none of a particular function, the roles can be as specific as is
required for a number of business needs. Beyond the Base roles which contain default access
restrictions, up to 100 new Custom roles can be registered for up to 5,000 users. The administrator
can also define whether to allow unregistered users to log in as guests and then specify settings for
guest user’s roles.
