You Can Prevent Unauthorized Copying

Using the copier function or printer driver, you can embed a pattern in the printed document. If the document is copied on a machine with the Copy Data Security function enabled, 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 with the Copy Data Security function enabled, the machine beeps to notify users that unauthorized copying is being attempted.
If the document is copied on a machine with the Copy Data Security function disabled, the hidden text becomes visible in the copy, indicating 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.
