What is Personal Printing?

The safe handling of print output is particularly important for certain branches or for individual departments, for example, in finance and legal or in accounting. However, allocating a separate printer to every employee is not a practical solution for protect­ing documents from unwanted exposure. As an alternative, Personal Printing offers a simple solution to this problem. Personal Printing ensures that printing within the business remains private. It’s a solution that offers secure, environmentally friendly and, at the same time, flexible printing. All sensitive documents remain protected because printing only occurs after indi­vidual authentication, directly at the printer.
