After passing through guidance panel 120 input user ID and password, whether the user ID of control module 170 definite inputs and password be corresponding to user ID and the password of registering registration in the parts 182 the user, thus execution authentification of user (S320).When step S320 was not certified, control module 170 presented error message (S322) the user.When the user is certified, some function (S330) that request will be used.It is not certified that error message can be announced the user.Whether control module 170 checks according to the registration of registering user in the parts 182 the user whether the user has the authority of using each function, allow to use (S340) by the user with the use of the function of determining request.If the use of the function of request allows to be used by the user, the function (S350) of request is carried out in control module 170 controls, and if not, just present error message and repeating step S330 (S360).Here, the function that error message can notify the user to ask does not allow to be used by the request user, so that can only carry out the function of permission.
According to this embodiment, behind authentification of user, check the rights of using of a function according to user's registration.Yet, when the user wishes to use some function of MFP 100 by input user ID and password for the first time, can check the rights of using of a function.More specifically, as shown in Figure 6, when some function of MFP 100 is carried out in request (S410), control module 170 presents user authenticating program so that use user ID and password input (S420).When input user ID and password, control module 170 determines whether the function of request allows (S430) to the user ID of input and the user of password.If the user is certified and allow to use this function, control module 170 control MFP 100 carry out the function (S450) of request.If the definite result who makes as step S430 does not allow this user to use this function, control module 170 just presents error message and repeating step S410 by display unit 122.
Though user ID and password all need for authentification of user in this embodiment of the present invention, authentification of user can only be realized by one of input user ID or password.
As seen from the above description, by use each function of MFP 100 according to user's registration restriction, can more effectively manage MFP 100.
By the MFP 100 and the method that is used to control MFP 100 according to various embodiments of the present invention, can prevent wastes by unauthorized information disclosure and the unrestricted consumables that cause that use of MFP 100.
Fig. 7 is the process flow diagram of explanation according to another process of the safe level authenticated of document.
In view of the above, certain safe level as top-secret, secret and regular grade, is assigned to the document, makes each function according to the addressable MFP of rights of using of each function of the safe level of document and MFP.
For example, when distributing top secret to give document, all functions of MFP are used in restriction, when the dispenser level of confidentiality is given document, have only general duplicating to be activated, and when distributing regular grade to give document, all functions are all addressable.
As shown in Figure 7, when some function of MFP 100 is carried out in request (S510), control module 170 explicit user authentication procedure interfaces are so that use user ID and password input (S520).When input user ID and password, control module 170 determines whether the function of request allows (S530) to the user ID of input and the user of password.
When the result as step S530 did not allow this user to use this function, control module 170 presented error message (S540) and repeating step S510 by display unit 122.
When the result as step S530 allowed this user to use this function, control module 170 was determined the safe level (S550) of corresponding document.
Therefore, control module is according to the sightless watermark of Data Detection of duplicating from corresponding document, thereby reads safe level, as top-secret, secret and acquiescence level.Because this process is generally carried out by scanning or duplicating, will omit its detailed description here.
According to the safe level of the document that reads at step S550, control module 170 determines whether the safe level of corresponding document allows authentic function (S560).
Because according to safe level, even authentic user also is restricted to the function of permission, as duplicate, fax and scanning, so need step S560.
When use allowing not allowed by the safe level of document by the function that the user uses in above-mentioned steps, control module 170 can present error message, and to announce this function unavailable, notes (S580) so that cause the user.
When the function that allows was also allowed by the safe level of document, control module 170 was carried out corresponding function and end operation (S570).
As mentioned above, according to MFP and the control method thereof based on embodiments of the invention, by limiting each function of using MFP according to the specific user with the safe level of distributing to document, it is by mistake open that the information that can prevent is passed through MFP.And, can prevent the unrestricted consumables waste that causes of using.
