Enhancing the Security of the Encrypted Secure Print Function
In order to enhance security, you can set the level of encryption strength and the number of characters that can be used for passwords.
Setting a default password saves time and effort for entering the password when printing.
NOTEBy enabling the Encrypted Secure Print function, it can be used for printing with the default settings. Configure the settings in the following procedure as required.
You can also enter a password in the dialog box displayed when printing each time instead of setting a default password.
The maximum number of characters for the document name used when printing may not be able to be entered, depending on the characters that are used.
