CUM003
1. What You Can Do with This Machine

Preventing Unauthorized Copying

You can print embedded patterns on printouts to prevent unauthorized copying.
• Using the copier function or the printer driver, you can embed a pattern in the printed document. If the document is copied on a machine with the Copy Data Security unit, protected pages are grayed out in the copy. This can minimize the risk of confidential information being copied. Protected fax messages are grayed out before being transmitted or stored. If a document protected by unauthorized copy guard is copied on a machine that is equipped with the Copy Data Security unit, the machine beeps to notify users that unauthorized copying is being attempted.
If the document is copied on a machine without the Copy Data Security Unit, the hidden text becomes conspicuous in the copy, showing that the copy is unauthorized.
• Using the copier function or the printer driver, you can embed text in the printed document for unauthorized copy prevention. If the document is copied, scanned, or stored in a Document Server by a copier or multifunction printer, the embedded text appears conspicuous in the copy, discouraging such unauthorized copying.
• For details, see the printer driver Help and Security Guide.
• For details about this function in the copier mode, see "Preventing Unauthorized Copies", Copier/ Document Server.
• For details about this function in the printer mode, see "Printing Documents that Are Not Authorized for Duplication", Print.
