authentication is password-free and helpful to us in numerous ways. Its primary utilisation is as an authentication method for the bizhub that permits employees to make use of the bizhubs on different floors, in different departments, or even at a branch office. Its flexibility has also allowed me to utilise the card throughout the organization for entry and exit management, as an employee ID card. In short, these solutions help me, and my company, rest easy.

■Improved Biometric Finger-Vein Authentication*

The bizhub’s finger vein authentication uses images of finger vein patterns captured by scanning the finger. This biometric measurement uses an internal characteristic as identification, and is nearly impossible to falsify. The unit

is remarkably easy to install as an option and now offers improved authentication accuracy and a more ergonomic and efficient shape that blends in with the design of the MFP.

*Optional Authentication Unit AU-102 required.

■ID & Print

Working in conjunction with finger-vein and IC card authentication, our easy-to-use ID & Print feature provides you with a secure printing environment. After sending a document from your PC to the bizhub, simply touch the bizhub with your finger or IC card to automatically begin printing—there’s no need to enter a password. If you choose, you can also use the ID & Print feature without the biometric unit or IC cards by entering your password directly on the control panel.

■Copy Security

(Copy Guard and Password Copy)*

By copying or printing documents with a special security pattern, C652/C552/C452/C652DS’s Copy Guard prevents unauthorised copies from being made on the C652/C552/C452/C652DS’s. The Password Copy feature allows this protection to be cancelled by entering a password before attempting to re-copy the document.

*Optional Security Kit SC-507 is required.

Work only on bizhubs with these features installed.

■New IEEE 802.1X Compatibility

The new bizhub now comes with a client module supporting the IEEE 802.1X authentication standard. This enables you to connect to secure networks, effectively shutting off all communication from unauthorised clients, and only allowing authorised users to connect.
