To minimize potential security risks, Ricoh asks that customers follow the below practices.
- When the device is connected to a network, make sure that the network is protected, for instance, by a firewall.
- Install the device in a secure network where users are restricted.
- To protect the device from fraudulent operation by malicious persons, make sure to set up and periodically change passwords for the administrator and supervisor. Complex passwords more than 8 characters are recommended.
- Install the device in an environment under appropriate physical security to prevent unauthorized access.
