Enhanced Locked Print lets you capture all the benefits of shared, centralized MFPs without compromising document security. Users store, release and manage confidential documents with the security of user ID and password authorization. Because Enhanced Locked Print is built-in, with no extra hardware or software to deal with, it's a fast and simple solution for protecting your organization's confidential and proprietary data.

ABOUT ENHANCED LOCKED PRINT
· Enhanced Locked Print is a cost-effective solution for storing, releasing and managing your confidential document output
· Lets you reduce operating costs, using a centralized printing strategy, without having to sacrifice security
· With the FlexRelease option enabled, print jobs securely stored on one MFP can be accessed and released from another MFP on the network without the need for external hardware or software
· An optional card reader offers additional ease of use for environments using existing proximity card systems by providing the automated release of print jobs stored on the MFP

GENERAL FEATURES
· Enhanced Locked Print strengthens document security when printing; it's easy plus cost-effective.

MAJOR APPLICATIONS
· Document security in a shared printing environment

BENEFITS
· Users can safely send documents to printers where they are securely held until released by the authorized user
· Documents cannot be picked up at the printer by another user - protecting information confidentiality
· Documents stored at the printer are encrypted (information cannot be compromised if hard drive is stolen)
· Provides the benefits of centralized output devices - increased functionality plus reduced printing, maintenance and ownership costs, without compromising document security
· Jobs stored on the printing device are retained even when the device is powered off

USING ENHANCED LOCKED PRINT
· User simply selects "Print" from their PC and sets the job to "Locked Print"
· User enters username and 4-digit pass-code (username and pass-code can be stored for automated entry)
· After arriving at the shared Multifunctional printing device, user enters username and pass-code to see all jobs
· Selected jobs are printed

IMPLEMENTING THIS SOLUTION
· Enhanced Locked Print is installed to the Multifunctional printing device either via embedded firmware (SD Card) or remotely via Web Interface
· No additional hardware or software minimizes deployment costs
· Administrators and users can configure Enhanced Locked Print through a simple web browser-based interface

The Card Authentication Package improves security while making it easier and faster for users to authenticate and access networked Multifunction Products (MFPs). Issued cards can manage user privileges, such as restricting the use of color, regulate scanning and provide users with secure printing of confidential documents.

ABOUT THE CARD AUTHENTICATION PACKAGE
· The Card Authentication Package provides an automated process for authenticating a user for access to MFP features and functionality, leveraging standard card reader technology. Installations with greater than about 500 users also require the Card Authentication Server software.

MAJOR APPLICATIONS
· MFP Access Control to eliminate unauthorized usage
· Security of information assets
· Reduce everyday operating costs
· Improved business processes and user efficiency

BENEFITS
· Reduces output costs, for example by restricting the use of color only to authorized card holders
· Improves security and workflow efficiency with scanning processes based on card credentials (when used with GlobalScan NX)
· Protects confidential documents using card access to release documents for printing when sent to shared MFPs (when used with Enhanced Locked Print NX)
· Establishes accountability through cost tracking tied to the identity of individual users (when used with Smart Accounting)

USING CARD AUTHENTICATION PACKAGE
· Simple card validation (compares card information with registered users)
· Users can authenticate at an MFP using the same card issued to access buildings (such as an employee ID badge), so users don't have to remember an additional login and password
· Once authenticated, holders of a valid card can perform copy, scan, fax, and/or use document server functions according to their assigned permissions
· Document release by card authentication solves the problem of documents being taken by mistake by other users printing to the same central machine (when used with Enhanced Locked Print NX)
· Card credentials also control access to the scanning and routing features of GlobalScan NX

IMPLEMENTING THIS SOLUTION
· Utilizes existing Windows network log-in infrastructure
· Basic, Active Directory, LDAP, Kerberos, and NTLM authentication supported
· Wide range of proximity cards supported including: HID, CASI-Rusco, and NxtWtch
· Web-based administration makes it easy to set user privileges including creating user Groups
· Administrators can access job logs by user (using Web SmartDeviceMonitor)
