Unauthorized Copy Control

You can embed patterns and text under printed text to prevent unauthorized copying of the document. Unauthorized Copy Control consists of two functions: [Data security for copying] and [Mask type:].

Important

This function is designed to discourage copying of confidential documents; it does not prevent unauthorized use of information.
