Unauthorized Copy Control
You can embed patterns and text under printed text to prevent unauthorized copying of the document.
Unauthorized Copy Control consists of two functions: [Data security for copying] and [Mask type:].
• This function is designed to discourage copying of confidential documents; it does not prevent
unauthorized use of information.
Opening the Unauthorized Copy Control Window
1. In the RPCS printer driver, open the [Printing Preference] window.
2. Click [Add/Change Custom Settings...].
3. Select the [Unauthorized copy...] check box.
4. Click [Control Settings...].
The Unauthorized Copy Control window appears.
• For details, see the printer driver Help.
Using [Data security for copying]
You can embed a print pattern by setting it in the printer driver.
Setting [Data security for copying] in the printer driver
• Select the [Data security for copying] check box. You can also enter the text in the [Text:] box.
• You cannot select the [Mask type:] check box at the same time.
• To print a document protected by gray overprint, the printer must be set up correctly. Consult
your administrator.
