Revolutionize Your Printing with PaperCut MF Unified Solutions

Secure Printing

Companies spend billions on IT security and firewall protection every year, but some of the biggest (and simplest) security wins actually sit right under our noses at the printer.

It all starts with a fundamental understanding of the journey of a print job from submission to collection.

The print life cycle

The print life cycle describes what happens to a print job before, during and after printing.

• Before printing: secure your printing infrastructure (who can print, what they can print, etc.)
• During printing: secure print workflows (security of the printing process itself).
• After printing: secure printed output (protection of documents in the wild).

Secure central printing

Now that you are familiar with this, let’s explore the different security features and how they apply to the three stages of the print life cycle.

Key and advanced security features

These security features are classified as fundamental or advanced.

• Fundamental security features are measures that every organization should implement.
• Advanced security features are optional measures that you can implement for A+ security.
  This table shows how you can implement the features in the print life cycle.

Print Deploy

Print Deploy is a print queue deployment tool that gets the right printer drivers and print queues to the right person in the right location, effectively. It allows users to move between locations, e.g., branch, office or campus, and without them configuring anything. Location printers are dynamically downloaded to their computers, it just works! And just as important, Print Deploy simplifies the frustrating and time-consuming tasks of configuring print queues and deploying drivers in managed environments.

Types

• Basic: Newer versions of PaperCut MF come with this built-in option, where you can clone a print queue and deploy it to the zone called “Everyone”.
• Advanced: Allows you to create different zones or queue configurations depending on the user groups and/or computers being managed. With this, each user will have access to the correct printers even if they move around the company or branches.

Stages

CLONING

Create and configure print queues on a computer or server, here you predetermine the settings, such as grayscales, duplex, or other print rules. Once the queues are configured, they are ready to be cloned into Print Deploy.

CONFIGURATION

In the simplest deployment option, Print Deploy puts all users and/or computers to be placed in one zone. With the Advanced option, you can create multiple zones, thus allowing users to connect to different machines in different zones quickly and effortlessly.

DEPLOYMENT / DEPLOY

With the click of a button, the print queues are deployed, ready for the users to use.

OCR

PaperCut MF’s OCR is all about creating smarter and more usable documents.
How? Well, every time you scan something, you can choose to make the final document an editable, text-searchable smart document.
Plus, like everything we do, it’s really easy to use – all it takes is a simple tap-and-scan action.

No additional OCR installation is needed

For a long time, searching and editing scans meant buying specialized third-party tools. Not anymore.
PaperCut MF’s OCR works out of the box for all types of workplaces, completing the ultimate trio of scanning actions:

• Choose your scan destination (email, network folder or cloud storage provider).
• Set your scanning specifications.
• Search for text in your scanned document as a PDF or edit it as a Word document.

Integrated in integrated scanning

We want every PaperCut customer to have smarter documents, so OCR was made a stock feature.
* OCR is part of PaperCut MF’s integrated scanning suite, which works across multiple platforms, brands and devices.
So if you have PaperCut MF, you also have OCR superpowers.

* PaperCut MF and active support for cloud-based and on-premise OCR is required.

Gone are the days when Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) was limited to big corporations. Today, organizations of all
sizes are embracing VDI to enhance data security, reduce infrastructure costs, and empower remote and hybrid workers.
And guess what? Papercut’s Print Deploy is now extending its full print enablement capabilities to the world’s most
popular VDI platforms:

• Citrix
• VMware Horizon
• Azure Virtual Desktop
• Microsoft Remote Desktop Server (RDS)
• Check the release notes here!

The significance of this expansion cannot be overstated, especially in the healthcare sector, where Citrix virtual
desktops are omnipresent. Clinical, diagnostic, and dispensing service providers, who rely on printing for
patient-critical paper workflows, can now enjoy seamless and secure printing within their VDI environments. But it’s not
just healthcare; large-scale enterprises are also set to benefit. Ensuring that every user has the right printer, in the
right place, at the right time, is paramount for productivity, regardless of where work takes place.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) has become a cornerstone of best practices for securing line-of-business systems. By requiring multiple verification methods, MFA significantly reduces the risk of breaches, even if a password is compromised. With PaperCut MF Version 23 and newer, we’ve taken a significant step in enhancing security. Now, MFA flows are fully supported for all admin and user web interfaces when Azure AD is used as the identity provider.

With PaperCut MF, we’ve not just raised the bar; we’ve redefined it. These new features and security enhancements reflect our unwavering commitment to providing you with cutting-edge solutions that empower your organization. Whether you’re a healthcare provider relying on Citrix VDI, a global enterprise, or any organization in between, we’ve got you covered.

The future of document management is here, and it’s in your hands. Upgrade to PaperCut MF and experience the next level of document management and security.
