Restricting Device Setup Screens (displayed on the LCD panel User Interface)
A standard feature, imageRUNNER device setup screens can be password protected, thereby ensuring
that administrative device settings are not changed without appropriate authority. When a device
administrator uses the System Settings menu, they can set network information, system
configuration and enable and disable network and printing protocols among many other options.

ail Box Pa
ssword Protection*
The imageRUNNER 550/600/60 and 330/400 product ships with up to 100 User Mail Boxes. These
Mail Boxes can be used for storage of scanned and printed data for integrating scanned and printed
data, or for up to three days document storage. Mail Box security is provided by the ability to
designate unique passwords for access of individual device Mail Boxes.
4.2 – Network and Print Security
Print
Job Accounting
A standard feature in Canon’s printer drivers, print job accounting requires users to enter an
administrator-defined password prior to printing, thereby restricting device access to those
authorized to print.

ail Box Printing**
Another secure document delivery feature, Mail Box printing allows users to send a job to their
individual Mail Box. Once stored in the Mail Box (if the Mail Box is password protected), a user must
enter their password to retrieve jobs previously stored.
4.3 – Memory Security
The majority of jobs processed by non-imagePlatform systems result in images being written to the
image server, hard disk drive and RAM, where it is compressed and randomly stored. The FAT (File
Allocation Table), which has all the allocation data of the job, is stored in a separate location of the
image server. When utilizing their internal image server, the data flow for the non-imagePlatform
imageRUNNER products — whether it is RAM (iR330/400) or hard disk (iR550/600) — is directed in
the same manner as that of the imagePlatform-based imageRUNNERs.
4.4 – Fax Security
Fax functions on the imageRUNNER200L/210/330/400 will operate in a manner similar to that
described under “Fax Security” in Section 2, page 17. Instead of storing page data in an image server,
all fax data is stored in RAM on the imageRUNNER 200L/210/330/400 fax board. Other than this, the
operation of fax is identical.
Please see Section 2 for more detailed information.
*The Multi-PDL Network printer board or the Network Printer Board needs to be installed in order to use the Mail Box feature.
Mail Boxes are not available on GP series, imageRUNNER 200L, and imageRUNNER 210 models.
**Does not apply to the GP series, imageRUNNER 200L, and 210.
