3.6 Working with Passwords
The Linx 4900 printer has a password system that allows you to control the
printer functions available to the printer operator. You can elect to work
with the password system On (password controlled access to certain printer
functions), or you can choose to work with the password system switched
Off at a designated ‘user level’.
‘User levels’ determine which printer functions are available; these levels
are Level A, Level B and Level C.
This section describes how to enter a password and how to switch the
password system on or off.
For information on changing a password, see ‘Changing the Passwords’ in
Chapter 5, ‘Changing the System Setup’.
3.6.1 To Enter the Password
When the password system is switched On, you must enter a password at
the PASSWORD screen to perform certain functions:

password and press the [enter] key.
