Set the Brother machine to prevent public access to certain features
Secure Function Lock lets you restrict public access to certain machine functions:
- Fax TX (Fax Transmit)
- Fax Rx (Fax Receive)
- Copy
- Scan
- PCC (PhotoCapture Center™)

Access to restricted operations can be enabled by creating a restricted user.

Make a careful note of your password. If you forget it please contact Brother Customer Service from the "Contact Us" section.

- If Fax Tx is disabled, you cannot use any functions in the Fax menu.
- Polled Transmit and Polling Receive are enabled only when both Fax Tx and Fax Rx are enabled.
- You cannot edit or delete a Shortcut when Secure Function Lock is set to On.
