Password-based Communications
This function restricts access to transmission and reception, requiring
users to meet password requirements. Password-based communications
lets you restrict the sending and receiving of faxes with the FAX System to
authorized individuals. Passwords are registered in advance for authorized
telephone numbers and authorized IDs, after which these functions are
activated. In this mode, no special steps involving passwords are required
to send or receive faxes. Jobs that meet the password requirements are
processed as usual, but those that do not result in errors, preventing
transmission or reception.
Requirements
• Passwords must be registered in the FAX System (specifically,
authorized telephone numbers or authorized ID).
• Authorized telephone numbers or authorized ID must be registered on
the other party’s fax machine.
• Password communications must be activated in advance. (Refer to
Activating Password-based Communications on page 5-36.)
<Meeting Requirements for Password-based Communications>

of their number must match the last four digits of the authorized
numbers.
