Introduction to DSS

The HP Digital Sending Software (DSS) extends the embedded Digital Sending functionality of supported devices by adding the following capabilities:

●Routing e-mail through a central point (the DSS server), which simplifies SMTP security management in environments with Access Control List security.

●Multiple SMTP gateways for redundancy in delivering e-mail jobs.

●Encrypted e-mail channel with SMTP over SSL.

●Sending fax through LAN Fax and Internet Fax servers.

●Public- and Personal Address Books.

●Access to Microsoft® Exchange Contacts from the front panel of the device with the Exchange Contacts feature.

●The LDAP Replication feature allows access to the company directory while off-loading the LDAP servers.

●The Workflow feature allows easy and consistent scanning into company workflow processes. Metadata can be collected for each job using custom keys or built-in system prompts, allowing integration with third-party applications.

●OCR processing of e-mail, folder and FTP jobs through the I.R.I.S OCR engine to create searchable output.

●Easy and intuitive interface to manage Digital Sending features through the Configuration Utility.

●Central logging of document sending activity for tracking, auditing, and troubleshooting purposes.

●Additional file types, such as PDF/A and Compact PDF.

DSS runs as a software service on a networked server. Supported devices are "DSS aware," which means they have components built into the firmware that allow them to make use of the services/ features offered by DSS. Once a device is added into DSS, all of the Digital Sending features are managed through the Configuration Utility.
