Abstract
A CPU determines whether a password canceller is connected to a system main body prior to execution of password check processing on the basis of stored password information at the start of the system. When the password canceller is connected to the system main body, the CPU clears the stored password information to start the system. However, when the password canceller is not connected to system main body, the CPU executes password check processing and controls the start of the system.
