Card Reader Authentication – Do you know who is using your Multi-Functional Printers?

Whether it be a large corporation, SME, School, or University, chances are these destinations all have Multi-functional Printers. Using Card Reader Authentication allows your organisation to monitor usage, including ink on paper or scanning of documentation and can be simply regulated with every use. The Elatec RFID Card Readers can authorise these operations for use with ease, Elatec’s reputation for German quality and reliability is very much present here in their TWN4 Card Reader range.

Some benefits of card reader authentication:

Increased security

Elatec card readers keep your business documents secure by only allowing users who are registered to a card to make scans of documents, including documents with sensitive data in them. You can stop users from printing sensitive documents and leaving them for others to see by making users sign in using their card/fob in order to release their prints.

Keep an eye on spending

By providing staff with a personal card or fob, you can stop unnecessary prints from being made, and make users accountable for their spending habits, it also allows your business to decide who has access to an organisation’s MFPs. Having users locked out of the devices until they confirm their print stops wasted prints that aren’t collected from the devices.
