Adding or editing a security watermark, Custom Quality Settings

Page 122 highlights

Advanced distinguish between original prints and photocopies. Six standard security watermarks are available as text or image, and you can create custom security watermark text. The Optional Components Wizard offers the opportunity to install the Security Watermark plug-in following installation of the printer driver. Security Watermark is available in the Advanced tab when PCL XL is selected as the PDL. Any security watermark can be edited, though a limited number of options can be changed for default security watermarks. A notable security watermark feature is the Document guard pattern, which prevents the document from being photocopied, scanned, faxed, or printed from memory. If a scan, fax, or print from memory is attempted, the process is stopped and a message appears on the printer operation panel. For a security watermark to be effective, it must be nearly invisible in a printed page and clearly visible in a photocopied page. Because printer and driver settings can vary, you must adjust the density and contrast before printing a security watermark. This adjustment is also recommended when changing the background pattern, replacing the ink or printer, and after heavy printing activity. Selecting Security Watermark sets these driver features to the following values: • Watermark in the Advanced tab is set to None. • Resolution in Imaging > Print Quality > Custom > Custom Quality Settings is set to 600 dpi. • Kyocera Image Refinement in Imaging > Print Quality > Custom > Custom Quality Settings is set to Off. • Color reproduction in the Imaging tab is set to Graphic. • EcoPrint in Quick Print, Basic, or Imaging tab is set to Off. • Adjustment setting in the Imaging tab is set to None. • Color Optimizer in the Advanced tab is set to None. The reverse is also true. If these features are changed, then the Security Watermark selection is set to None, and cannot be used. Security watermark should be turned on before using Lock Settings. When Security watermark is turned off, using Lock Settings makes it unavailable for all users. The administrator can ensure that a security watermark is printed on all jobs by selecting Security watermark in Device Settings > Administrator > Lock Settings. Adding or editing a security watermark 1 In Advanced > Security Watermark, click New to create a custom security watermark. You cannot edit default security watermark options. To edit a custom security watermark, select it from the list. 2 Enter a security watermark name. 3 Set up to 3 lines of text. 12-6 User Guide
