If you need to
benefit from pull printing with legacy printers in your organization
that do not natively support SecureJet Auth and Print-SMP module,
connect them to SecureJet Boxes with SecureJet Auth. Users can then use a PIN code, their corporate
proximity badge or swipe card on the reader plugged to the box
located next to the printer to release their print jobs retained in
a SecureJet Print-PS server.
Authenticate on the reader or keypad
to get your print jobs
SecureJet
Box is a smart miniature print server connected to and located next to
the printer. Connectivity with the printer is through USB or network.
The SecureJet Box needs to be equipped with a SecureJet Auth-PX
solution for authenticate the user using a badge reader or numeric
keypad. Users authenticate using their PIN code or their badge, upon
successful validation their pending jobs are instantly pulled from
one of the remote SecureJet Print-PS print jobs retention servers
and released on the local printer.
An
unlimited number of users can be
recognized per SecureJet Box. The badge and users list can be validated
live against LDAP or Active
Directory* or against a users self-enrollment database.
*: Live LDAP/AD validation requires
SecureJet Print-PS
The authentication
process is very simple:
- For PIN codes,
the user enters his PIN code then press "enter" to release his
print jobs
- For badges, the
user swipes or shows his badge
at a distance of 0.5
to 2 inches (1 to 5cm, based on the badge type)
to release his print
jobs
Support SecureJet
Auth modules are the following: Auth-PXT (PIN codes), Auth-PX
(Proximity badges) and Auth-SW (Swipe cards)
Includes
SecureJet Print-SMP in standard
Each SecureJet Box includes the
SecureJet Print-SMP module, it does
not need to be added to the box. Server-based retention requires additionally the
SecureJet Print-PS server software. You will find more details about
Secure Printing in the
SecureJet Print-SMP and
Print-PS information
pages.
Badge number extraction and validation
When connected to the SecureJet Box, the SecureJet Auth module can validate badge numbers and get user
information in various ways:
-
If the user Badge number is in Active Directory or LDAP database
SecureJet can perform an indirect live validation of the user Badge
number against that database. That validation is
performed by SecureJet Print-PS authentication Windows service
acting as a gateway.
The user Badge
number is
submitted by
SecureJet Print-PS
to one or more AD/LDAP/SLDAP servers
(failover capabilities) to find the user record matching the Badge
number, with daisy-chaining capabilities. AD/LDAP/SLDAP returns the user information
including his email address, login, full name, department name, domain,
home folder etc.
This solution is the best when
user information is in LDAP/AD databases.

-
If users
authenticate with proximity or swipe badges they can securely
enroll and de-enroll their badge directly on a MFP or on a PC,
without any support needed from IT or any email system
(cumbersome and leading to significant support), and
authenticate using the same badge on any SecureJet Box connected
to the same SecureJet Print-PS. The enrollment PC must be
equipped with a SecureJet enrollment software and the
appropriate badge reader, MFPs must be equipped with a native
SecureJet Auth-PX or Auth-SW solution (not connected to a
SecureJet Box but directly to the MFP).
To enroll users authenticate on the MFP or the enrollment PC against
Active Directory or LDAP/SLDAP using their network login/password. They
are requested to show their badge to the reader, the badge number is
read, decoded and merged with the user
Active Directory information.
Enrollment information
can be stored:
-
by the
Print-PS server (does not require any database)
-
in a local
or remote Microsoft SQL Server database
-
directly
inside Active Directory or LDAP
Once enrolled, users
can authenticate with their badge from any SecureJet-equipped
printer or MFP validating the badge against AD/LDAP or Secure
Print Print-PS depending on the chosen storage.
Once enrolled users
can de-enroll even without their badge; they just need to
authenticate on a SecureJet-equipped MFP or on an enrollment PC
using their network credentials and request the de-enrollment of
their current badge.
Usage on printers and MFPs connected to the SecureJet Box
Authentication on the SecureJet Box can be used for:
Simple to install
SecureJet Box connect directly:
-
to any USB or
100BT ethernet Network printer. For network printers the box
automatically reads the printer DHCP address, it features two
bridged network ports so that you don't need any extra network
plug on the wall.
-
to SecureJet Auth-PX,
SecureJet Auth-PXT and SecureJet Auth-SW authentication
readers
- to the corporate
network in 100BT

All the software is running inside the
diskless SecureJet Box. The Box is easily configured using a web
browser with the address of the SecureJet Print-PS server performing
authentication service and optionally the address of another server
providing print jobs retention service.
System requirements
SecureJet Box supports most printers and MFPs with 10/100BT
Ethernet LAN or USB connection.
SecureJet Box requires a SecureJet Auth PX, PXT or SW module to
authenticate users.
