What it does

The purpose of the IDPort device is to interface differing card reader peripherals to embedded applications.
The Monitor IDPort allows a wide variety of identification devices such as card readers to be easily used with embedded MFD expense management solutions to identify and authenticate users.

How it Works

The IDPort connects to a server application and when a card is swiped or presented to an attached reader, the IDPort sends data read from the connected device to the server application. The server application passes the data on to the embedded MFD application using standard HTTP or HTTPS.

Compatibility

A software application is provided to allow the devices to be configured for different identification devices.
The IDPort devices are plug and play. When connected to the Ethernet network, they will automatically obtain an IP address and then locate the server using the standard SLP protocol.

What it does

When printing a sensitive job immediately, it may be sent to a printer that is in use, causing the user to wait for it. Alternatively, if the printer is free, the job may be viewed by unauthorised readers before it can be collected by the intended recipient. Secure print release allows a user to walk to a printer of their choice, and then release their job by simply swiping or presenting their ID card.

How it Works

Users print their jobs to a print queue where the job is held until they are ready to retrieve it. The user authenticates themselves at the printer where they wish to have the print job delivered by swiping or presenting their ID card.
All queued jobs for that user are then delivered and printed at the selected printer.

Compatibility

A Monitor IDPort, in conjunction with print server software, allows Secure Print Release from any network compatible printer.
