A system and method for limiting access to shared network devices only to authorized users is disclosed. First, access information associated with authorized users is stored in a memory of a network device. When a user enters a command to the network device from a networked computer, the user is asked to enter unique access information such as a user name and password. The user name and password is transmitted to the network device with the command. The network device determines whether the user name and password matches one of those stored in its memory. If there is a match, the command is processed by the network device. If no match is found, the command is discarded.
