Unauthorized Copy Control

77

To prevent unauthorized copying, you can embed patterns and text beneath the
print. You do not need a special paper to use this function. If a paper with text
or image patterns is copied by a copier or a multi-function printer, either the pat-
terns are printed vividly or the copy is grayed out, so as to protect the informa-
tion on the original from leaking. To print with protection against unauthorized
copying, you can use [Data security for copying] and [Mask type:].

❒ This function is designed to discourage copying of confidential documents; it

does not prevent unauthorized use of information.

❒ You must install the Copy Data Security Unit to gray out files protected by

Data Security for Copying that are stored in the document server or printed.
You do not have to install the unit to print files that are protected by Data Se-
curity for Copying.

❒ You can use this machine to print files that are protected by data security for

copying. However, because you cannot install the Copy Data Security unit on
this machine, copies of files cannot be grayed out when using data security
for copying.

❒ Data security for copying cannot be used together Toner saving. 
❒ Use the following setting to make the embedded pattern or text for prevent-

ing unauthorized copying more visible: 
• Under [Copier Features], [Original Type Setting], set [Original Type 1 (Text)] to

.

• Note that if you make this setting, gray-scale images in documents that do

not contain embedded patterns or text might not be copied properly.

❒ To use the Unauthorized Copy Control function, configure the RPCS printer

driver settings as shown below. This function cannot be selected if other set-
tings are applied.
• In  the  [Paper Type:] list, select [Plain/Recycled].
