To change certain settings, you must log in as an authorised user. There are three user roles: the System administrator, Key operator, and Power user. They have authorisation to edit specific groups of settings. You do not need to log in before you start a session. The system will only display a login screen, when you want to perform a special action.
It is possible to disable the local accounts in Océ Express WebTools in the [Security] - [Configuration] - [User access configuration] section and enable network authentication instead. When network authentication is enabled, the AD user names are mapped on the user roles (System administrator, Key operator, or Power user). When logged in with the AD credentials the user is authorised to change all the settings in Océ Express WebTools that correspond with his user role, without having to log in again.
For more information about network authentication refer to the Océ PlotWave-ColorWave Systems Security - Administration guide on http://downloads.oce.com.
Once you have logged in, the log in lasts for the duration of the browser session. When you have not been active for more than 30 minutes the session expires and you need to log in again.
For security reasons it may be useful to periodically change the password for the three access modes in Océ Express WebTools.
