Locking the Operator Panel Menus Using the Embedded Web
Server
You can use the operator panel lockout functionality to create a PIN and choose specific menus to lock. Each time a locked
menu is selected, the user will be prompted to enter the correct PIN. The PIN does not affect access through the Embedded
Web Server.
To lock operator panel menus:
1. Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the
format: http://ip_address/.
2. Click Configuration.
3. Under Security, choose the menus you want to protect.
4. Create and re-enter the PIN.
NOTE: PINs must be 4 digits and numeric (0–9).
NOTE: If you do not know the IP address of the printer, print a network setup page and locate the IP address in the
TCP/IP section. For more information, see Printing a Network Setup Page
.
NOTE: Locking the printer operator panel will prevent a user from entering the printer operator panel both remotely
and at the printer.
