ENCRYPTED SECURE PRINTING

Security over the network is an increasing concern for some organisations. Encrypted secure printing allows you to send, store and print confidential documents on machines that are shared with other users in a network environment.

Encrypting your documents before sending them to your machine will prevent unauthorised personnel accessing confidential or sensitive information.

Print jobs are encrypted immediately before transmission to the machine, where they are stored in an encrypted format on the hard disk drive. The documents will remain stored and unprinted until an authorised user authenticates the print job; decryption only happens when the job is actually printing.

This feature requires the hard disk drive in your machine, this device must be enabled in the printer driver. (See “Adjusting Windows printer drivers” on page 161.)

The encrypted secure printing feature may not be available from within some PC applications.

If your application software has a collate print option, turn it off. Otherwise secure printing may not work.

There are two parts in encrypted secure printing:

>Sending the document

>Printing the document
