Enabling Public User Access

Create a regular user, who will be used as a Public User. The user will be used to:
- account all print/copy/scan/fax jobs
- control access rights
Set the publicUserOperationsUsername property in system settings to the username of the created user.
Allow public user access in the device configuration page.

Tap on the Public user access button in the authentication screen
You will be prompted to confirm if you want to log in as a public user. Tapping the Cancel button will redirect you back to the authentication screen. Tapping the Login button will sign you in as a public user.

All print, scan, copy and fax jobs will be accounted under the user specified in the system settings under publicUserOperationsUsername property.
All jobs performed by public user are displayed in Job list and included in Web reports.

Access definitions can be edited the same way as for any other regular Dispatcher Paragon user. See Configuring Access Definitions for more details.

If you get an error when you try to login as a public user into the Embedded Terminal, then make sure that the user configured in publicUserOperationsUsername is correctly set and that Site Server services were restarted after the publicUserOperationsUsername configuration was changed.
If you do not see the Public user access button in the authentication screen:
- make sure that the device has the Allow public user enabled and that the user in the publicUserOperationsUsername configuration is correctly set
- reset the cache of the MFD in the MFD administration web
