Security Watermark

The Security Watermark is a plug-in feature that prints a nearly invisible image or text against a background pattern. The security watermark appears only when the printed page is photocopied. This helps to identify printed pages that should not be photocopied, or to distinguish between original prints and photocopies. Six standard security watermarks are available as text or image, and you can create custom security watermark text.

A notable feature of Security Watermark is the Document guard pattern, which prevents the document from being photocopied, scanned, faxed, or printed from memory. If a scan, fax, or print from memory is attempted, the process is stopped and an error message appears on the printer's operation panel.

The Optional Printer Components wizard offers the opportunity to install the

Security Watermark plug-in following installation of the printer driver.

Security Watermark appears in the Advanced tab after selecting Device

Settings > PDL > Select PDL > PCL XL.

The administrator can ensure that a security watermark is printed on all jobs by selecting Device Settings > Administrator > Lock Security Settings.

Selecting Security Watermark sets these driver features to the following values:

Watermark in the Advanced tab is set to Off.

Resolution in the Imaging tab is set to 600 dpi.

Kyocera Image Refinement in the Imaging tab is set to Off.

EcoPrint in Imaging > Quality is set to Off.

Adjustment Settings ( Brightness and Contrast is set to 0) in Imaging >

Grayscale > Custom.

Custom box in the Job tab is unavailable.

The reverse is also true. If these features are changed, then the Security

Watermark selection is set to None, and cannot be used.

Adding or Editing a Security Watermark

You can create a new security watermark that displays text but not an image. Any security watermark can be edited, though a limited number of options can be changed for default security watermarks.
