Centrally Controlling Scan Conditions and Distribution

Centrally Controlling Scan Conditions and Distribution
You can use the distributed scan management (DSM) system in Windows Server 2008 R2 to manage the destinations and scan settings for each individual user in a group and to use the information when distributing scanned data.
You can also use this system to centrally manage information about people using the network and the machine's scanner functions. Both delivered files and user information can be controlled.
• You must set up and configure a Windows server to use the distributed scan management system. This system is supported under Windows Server 2008 R2.
• For details about how to deliver files using the distributed scan management system, see "Managing Scan Conditions and Other Settings in the Block using Distributed Scan Management", Scan.

1. What You Can Do with This Machine

Monitoring and Setting the Machine Using a Computer

Using Web Image Monitor, you can check the machine's status and change the settings.
You can check which tray is running out of paper, register information in the Address Book, specify the network settings, configure and change the system settings, manage jobs, print the job history, and configure the authentication settings.
• See "Using Web Image Monitor", Connecting the Machine/ System Settings.
• See Web Image Monitor Help.

CUM003

Preventing Unauthorized Copying

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. 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.
