In this challenging cybersecurity climate, simple human errors like leaving sensitive paper documents in a printer can put an organization at risk. Print Security can help an organization control print output and thereby reduce paper base security risks.

- Reproduction Security
Access Control
Controlling access begins by authenticating users at the printer or multifunction device. This can be done with a PIN code, a password, or a proximity card. Users can be assigned privileges by an administrator, authorizing them to have access to certain features and functions on the device (copying, printing, scanning, faxing, etc.).
Pull Printing
When a user launches a print job, they must authenticate at the device before their document will print out. This feature can improve the security of sensitive documents by helping to reduce the likelihood of unattended documents lying on printer output trays, where they may be exposed to unauthorized persons.
Watermarking
Most comprehensive print management solutions can place a watermark across pages when printing and/or scanning. This feature can discourage unauthorized users from reproducing sensitive information. Documents can be watermarked as confidential, copyright-protected, or as a draft version not for distribution.
Reproduction Security
The dominance of high-quality, high-speed digital printing makes any document with intrinsic value a potential target of counterfeiters. Whether you need to prevent altering or copying and pasting from a digital document, or photocopying a hardcopy original, we can help.
