Beyond the basics
Your machine’s security features can help you keep private fax documents private,
avoid unwanted outside communication and even protect against unauthorized 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 features. If you set the passcode to anything besides 0000, this passcode pro-
vides access to many other security features.
To set your machine’s passcode:
1
Decide upon the four-digit passcode (0001–9999) you want to use. Write the
passcode down, and put it in a safe place.
Important: Do not use 0000. This turns off passcode protection.

Operation protection
Important: For this feature to work, you must have set the passcode, as described

When operation protection is activated on your machine, only users who enter the
