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.

Following installation of the printer driver, use the Optional Printer

Components wizard to install the Security Watermark plug-in.

Security Watermark appears in the Advanced tab if PCL XL is selected in the PDL Settings dialog box.

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

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

Watermark in the Advanced tab is set to None.

Printer profile in the Imaging tab is set to Line art.

EcoPrint in Quick Print, Basic > Color, or Imaging > Quality is set to Off.

Adjustment setting (color or black & white) in the Imaging tab is set to

None.

Color Optimizer in the Advanced tab is set to None.
