Configuring Secure Print

LPM Premise offers a more secure way of printing jobs by implementing the End-to-End Encryption of print jobs. Print jobs are encrypted during submission with the use of a specific print driver (Lexmark UPD 3.0). The print job stays encrypted while being stored in the file server and is decrypted only during printing with the use of PrintCryption 2.0 eSF application. Encrypted print jobs can be identified by the file extension .tar in the file name.

Note: Encrypted print jobs are not converted to duplex even if the user is assigned with Force jobs to two-sided printing policy.

Job Submission Methods

To submit secure print jobs, you can use either Job Router or Client Software.

For more information on installing the job router service, see the Lexmark Document Distributor Administrator's Guide.

For more information on installing Client Software, see Installing the LDD Port monitor software.

Note: Secure print is not supported on jobs submitted by mobile, e-mail, AirPrint, PrintTrack, and LPM.
