Security Suggestions for Key Operators
To keep your machine’s highly-sensitive document data 
secure, the designated Key Operators are instructed to 
perform the recommended security measures described 
below for the initial machine installation, network connection, 
network configuration, setup of security functions, and 
replacement and disposal of the machine.
1.
Key Operators are required to verify the identity of the 
manufacturer’s service technician, or of an affiliated 
company’s staff, or marketing company, by requesting 
their ID Card.
Do not give the device passwords over the phone or by 
email.
2.
Always connect through a Firewall when installing your 
device on a network that is connected to the Internet. 
When connecting this device to a client PC, or a server, 
we recommend configuring your network environment 
with a switching hub to prevent your device from being 
wiretapped.
3.
A Key Operator password is essential to maintaining the 
security of the device. Key Operators are required to 
change the password from the initial setting, and keep 
the password confidential and in a safe place. To 
change the initial Key Operator password, refer to the 
Operating Instructions (For Function Parameters) and 
set up [General Settings] -> [09 Key Operator Mode] -> 
[80 Key Operator Password].
4.
A Web Server password is essential to maintaining the 
security of the device. Change the password from the 
initial setting, and keep the password confidential and in 
a safe place. To change the initial Web Server 
password, refer to the Operating Instructions (Device 
Explorer and Embedded Web Server).
When setting, do not leave this device unattended. Also, 
when setting using a browser, do not leave the PC 
unattended after logging in.
5.
A Config. Editor password is essential to maintaining the 
security of the device. Key Operators are required to 
change the password from the initial setting, and keep 
the password confidential and in a safe place. To 
change the initial Config. Editor password, refer to the 
Operating Instructions (For Function Parameters) and 
set up [General Settings] -> [09 Key Operator Mode] -> 
[73 Config. Editor Password].
6.
Change the Hard Disk Drive Lock password from the 
initial setting. By setting a password, even if the Hard 
Disk Drive is taken away, the password locked device 
prevents illicit retrieval of the data by unauthorised 
personnel. 
The Hard Disk Drive Lock password is required when 
the equipment is being repaired. Furthermore, it is 
essential that the Key Operator personally enter the 
password to maintain security of the password and 
prevent unauthorised users. To change the initial Hard 
Disk Drive Lock password, refer to the Operating 
Instructions (For Function Parameters) and set up 
[General Settings] -> [09 Key Operator Mode] -> [68 HD 
Drive Lock Settings].
7.
To prevent illicit use by unauthorised personnel, perform 
the following for ID/password settings.
1) Use the maximum number of digits.
2) Use a variety of the accepted character types.
3) Change the ID and password periodically.
Make sure that the setting screen can only be seen by 
the Key Operator when setting/changing various ID and 
passwords. Keep this information confidential.
8.
The documents stored in the Mail Box should be printed 
immediately. Upon printing, the document data is 
deleted, thus preventing unauthorised re-printing by a 
third party. For additional information, please refer to 
MailBox Printing of the Operating Instructions (For 
Printer) of provided CD-ROM.
9.
Scan data stored in the hard disk can be viewed and 
deleted by anybody. Transfer to another medium and 
delete from the hard disk immediately. For additional 
information, please refer to the Operating Instructions 
(For Scanner and Email) of provided CD-ROM.
10. When finished, be sure to press the Reset button and 
return to the standby screen. Also, do not reset Auto 
Reset Time settings.
11. When disposing of this equipment, initialize the Hard 
Disk Drive, and overwrite or delete the data area stored 
in the Hard Disk Drive. To delete the data area in the 
Hard Disk Drive, contact the authorised Panasonic 
dealer for a service technician. To initialize the Hard 
Disk Drive, refer to the Operating Instructions (For 
Function Parameters) and set up [General Settings] -> 
[09 Key Operator Mode] -> [65 Hard Disk Initialize].
 
12. When disposing of SD cards and other external memory 
cards, destroy the card or use wiping software to 
completely delete the data. Data on SD cards and other 
external memory cards are your responsibility.

information (addresses) are your responsibility. If the 
device malfunctions and the data are deleted, it cannot 
be recovered and is not covered in the warranty.
14. Incorrect settings may compromise device security or 
prevent correct operation of this device. Check the 
details carefully when changing any settings.
15. If the server certificate expires, the use of the machine 
may be impeded. It is your responsibility to reset the 
certificate before it expires.
16. When setting the time automatically through an NTP 
server, connect to a reliable NTP server to obtain the 
time data.
❈ The security settings on this equipment are restricted and 
require the input of an 8-digit Key Operator password to 
set, or change them. The initial password setting is 
00000000 (8 digits). The password can be set arbitrarily. 
The Key Operator plays a critical part in maintaining and 
controlling the security of the device and in prevention of 
its unauthorised access, therefore, it is of utmost 
importance that you understand the content described in 
the Operating Instructions and that you follow the 
suggestions herein.
