How to Protect Printers against Unauthorized
Access (IP Sender Control)
In TCP/IP networks, you can define which IP addresses and thus
which workstations are allowed to access a printer and carry out
print jobs.
Benefits and
Purpose
The ’IP Sender Control’ allows you to protect printers and sensitive
data from unauthorized access and to attribute print costs precisely
within the company.
To enable the ’IP Sender Control’, you must enter the IP addresses or
host names of the clients into an IP sender list. The print server will
only accept print jobs from clients specified in the list.
Up to eight IP senders can be specified. The use of wildcards (*)
allows you to define subnetworks (e.g. 192.168.122.*) and to
authorize these subnetworks for printing.
