Secure Function Lock

Secure Function Lock lets you restrict Public access to certain machine functions (Fax Tx, Fax Rx, Copy, Scan and Print1).
This feature also prevents users from changing the Default settings of the machine by limiting access to the Menu settings.
Disabling at least one function is required to turn on Secure Function Lock for the Public user.
Access to restricted operations can be enabled by creating a restricted user. Restricted users must enter a user password to use the machine.
Make a careful note of your password. If you forget it, please call Brother Customer Service.
