Multifunction printers are found in every office in today’s workplace, whether the company is digital or not. Why? Because it’s still an essential part of business, to print out documents, evaluate, share, and distribute.

Luckily, the multifunction printer makes it easy to manage and oversee print while also making print itself more accessible through increased capacity, production, and quality.

Understanding Security and Your Multifunction Printer

As helpful as modern print features are, it’s important to remember that security has also changed in the print environment. Networked machines can bring in data breaches or other possible threats and vulnerabilities if not addressed.

Common print security issues usually start with data collection and storage, but can also be part of employee printing processes.

If print security hasn’t been the highest item on your priority list – or even if it has – it’s time to check in with some common issues and figure out how to address them. The best tip: reach out to a reliable print vendor like United Business Technologies today to start talking security.

Common Print Security Problems

Print security issues range from the predictable to the surprising (unrestricted print access may have seemed fine until now!). Here are the problems that businesses can address with the right information and equipment.

  • Data storage
  • Unrestricted access
  • Hard drive information
  • Password protection
