If you get an error when you try to login as a public user into the Embedded Terminal, then make sure that the user configured in publicUserOperationsUsername is correctly set and that Site Server services were restarted after the publicUserOperationsUsername configuration was changed.
If you do not see the Public user access button in the authentication screen:
make sure that the device has the Allow public user enabled and that the user in the publicUserOperationsUsername configuration is correctly set
reset the cache of the MFD in the MFD administration web
