1. Improving setup capability * Improving setup capability (A-E), the leaflet is bundled. [Notice of addition/change
for the function of the main unit]
A. Add the main unit default setting item --- Add the individual usage management mode
When using MFP in an environment where it is unnecessary to restrict change of setting with administrator
authority such as personal use or environment without IT administrator, improve operational capability by making it
possible to manage the device without logging in.
Add the following items through the setup wizard at the time of turning on the main power and make it possible to
select.
Additional items [Device management by the Administrator] [Yes (Office that is the middle sized company or
bigger)] or [No (Home office/SOHO)]
In case of selecting [No (Home office/SOHO)], it is possible to use the function without log in that it is necessary for
