the address book.

x

Preventing an Unauthorized Copy

You can print embedded pattern on paper to prevent them from being copied.

AMA001S

• Using 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 (op­tional), protected pages are grayed out in the copy, preventing confidential
information from 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 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.
