Security & Support

Authentication
Highlights - Box Functions (Data Handling)
Stored data can be moved/copied from one Box to another Thumbnail Display of Box Data File transfer to connected PC via TWAIN driver => editing/binding with PageScope Workware Individual saved documents/thumbnails can be viewed with PageScope Box Operator Routing (eMail/FTP/SMB) Network distribution of Box documents is possible Documents that can be sent through the network can be displayed by selecting the route tab Users may distribute, delete, rename, move/copy or proof print each displayed document
Highlights - Box Functions (Bind Printing)
Multiple documents (print or scan data) stored in a Box can be printed as a single job They are output in order of document selection Max. 10 documents can be selected

Highlights - Security

Competitors offer security systems as part of an optional kit Konica Minolta security measures are incorporated as standard features into the main unit
Highlights - Security (User Authentication)
Administrators assign access privileges to individual users or work groups, preventing unauthorized access
Access can be restricted by external server authorization software, (Active Directory) or the authentication functions built into the bizhub 420/500
Protection of active jobs job files of other users cannot be seen job files of other users cannot be altered or deleted (unless machine settings are changed) User access can be limited to specific functions (copy, print, scan, fax, box) Group access management is also possible
Highlights - Security (User Authentication & Group Management)
Combined operation User authentication & group management => fine-tuning of access privileges Individuals = different access privileges than their groups, (allowing/restricting activity based on office needs)

Account management

Activity count limits (for any bizhub 420/500 function) => entire groups or individuals Up to 1,000 separate user/group settings (w/HDD)
Highlights - Security (Additional Security Functions)
Box Access Restrictions Box access can be limited (=> passwords) to prevent unauthorized access to confidential information Data Erasure and Encryption Deletion of RAM, HDD cache data after completion of jobs After disposal/destruction of HDD, data is completely overwritten to prevent leakage of confidential data Optional security kit SC-502 for HDD data encryption is available Log Management
Recording of all access attempts and user activity (in development) => to trace/detect unauthorized access
Highlights - Security (Box Functions)
Secure Print User Box Jobs with ID & password are only printed after input of password at machine (only with opt. HDD) Box Password The document list is only displayed after input of password Passwords (max. 8 characters are set with Box Registration utility)
Job Holding & Deletion
With Proof Print data can be held to be printed later, then automatically be deleted after output Data deletion is also possible without prior output

Highlights Job Priority

The job order in the queue can be rearranged at the LCD panel or via PageScope JobSpooler Job priority can be changed while different types of document output are in process (important print jobs can be done in between large copy or print jobs without any loss of data)

Technical Improvements

Reduced switch back speed in duplex mode increases feeding reliability
Straight paper pass ensures higher MCBJ Constant contact of pick-up roller for reliable feeding even of special papers Use of hard urethane for pick-up, feed and separation rollers enhances durability and stable feeding Paper size detection (long & short edge feeding) from cassettes & bypass Paper rollers lift when opening the paper path for easy jam removal Different speed control for normal and thick paper (up to 210g/m) Improved developer suction with increased PM cycle
