Overview
This chapter covers instructions for some of the main HP Access Control secure functions of
multifunction printers and the principal navigation buttons on the touch screen panel.
Depending on your HP Access Control system configuration, one or more of your printer functions may
be secure. To use a secure printer function, the system allows you to authenticate either before or after
touching a secure function button (such as Copy or Fax).
After authenticating, you are logged into the system and you may use all the HP Access Control secure
functions without having to authenticate again. After you are finished, you will log out of the system.
Then you will need to authenticate again if you need to use any of the secure printer functions.
Please note that the HP Access Control system will automatically log you out after a short period of
inactivity defined by your system administrator between 15 and 300 seconds. Nevertheless, we
recommend that you log out immediately after finishing your secure printing activities. See the chapter
“Logging out of multifunction printers” for detailed instructions.
Front Panel Navigation
The Home button
The Home button takes you to the initial printer functions screen. It has a picture of a small house, and
it appears in some of the function screens at the top left corner of the printer’s touch screen.
After performing a printer action, such as copy or fax, you can touch the Home button to return to the
main menu screen.
After you are logged in to the HP Access Control system, you will remain logged in while you perform
as many printing functions as you wish, including navigating through the menu using the Home button.
Please note, however, that the system will automatically log you out after a short period of inactivity,
which is configured by your system administrator between 15 and 300 seconds.
Scrolling the screen display
If your printer’s main menu has more than four main buttons, the screen display will scroll down. Use
the up and down arrows located at the far right column of the screen display to scroll the screen display
up or down.
The Sign Out button
For instructions on using the Sign Out button, please refer to the section “Logging out of HP Access
Control multifunction printers – Touching the Sign Out button.”
