Depending on the Permissions settings, some services and settings are locked or hidden until you
enter the administrator user name and password.
For software versions earlier than PL6 (XX.5X.XX), the default administrator password is 1111. For
software versions PL6 (XX.5X.XX) or later, the default administrator password is the device serial
number. You can obtain the serial number from the back of the printer, from the configuration report,
or from the home page of the Embedded Web Server. The password is case-sensitive.
Note: Upgrading to PL6 (XX.5X.XX) does not change the administrator password. If you reset
the device to factory defaults, the administrator password changes to the device serial number
for versions PL6 (XX.5X.XX) or later of the software.
To access the control panel as the administrator:
1. At the printer control panel, press the Home button.
2. Touch Log In.
3. If present, touch admin, otherwise, use the keypad to type admin, then touch Next.
4. Type the administrator password, then touch OK.
