Broadhurst Comments on Secure
Production Printing Environments
With the rising incidence of fraud,
identity theft and counterfeiting, it’s critical to protect all kinds of
documents against unauthorized reproduction or misuse. This need extends beyond
checks to include applications like tickets, passports, ID badges, prescription
pads, high-value coupons, cross-border documents and birth certificates. Server
firewalls and other security barriers usually protect company data until it
reaches the printing process.
Producing sensitive documents demands the
highest levels of quality and security. Océ has a number of ways to help
customers address these concerns in printing environments. Broadhurst recently
spoke about some of the factors involved in achieving secure production printing
environments:
Printing secure documents on demand eliminates the
costs and risks of pre-printing forms on expensive security paper stock and then
storing and transporting preprinted checks and other documents that can be
damaged or stolen. By replacing a complex, multi-step process with a single,
on-demand, plain-paper-in/secure-finished-document-out process, you can
streamline your production environment.
Check printing is a key
application for secure document printing, and Océ is a member of the Check
Payment Systems Association (CPSA), which sets standards for document security
and publishes security feature requirements. Océ offers a range of check
printing security features that meet criteria set forth by the industry’s
leading standards organization, the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI).
As a leader in secure printing solutions, Océ helps
customers produce safer, more secure, high-quality business-critical documents.
Océ has a tradition of innovation and leadership in transactional and MICR
printing, coupled with Check Payment Systems Association (CPSA) certification
and a full range of hardware, software and security innovations.
For
years, adding security features like pantographs, prismatic designs and
holograms involved creating pre-printed forms on secure paper on offset presses
– a costly, resource-intensive undertaking. Digital security features
offer a level of security equivalent or superior to those used in traditional
offset-printed security papers and documents – without the associated labor and
costs.
Océ digital printing solutions offer a full range of anti-copy,
anti-fraud security features as protection against counterfeiting, fraud and
reproduction. Versatile high-speed color inkjet technologies like the Océ
JetStream® platform, enable secure document printing that is fast, efficient and
cost-effective.
