Managing the Machine with the uniFLOW OM Integration
2
What You Can Do with the uniFLOW OM Integration
Equipped in the machine are the functions activated by the uniFLOW OM server.
The major functions are as follows:
uniFLOW OM Server-based Authentication Modes and Log-in
Methods
You can manage the machine by limiting its use only the users who are registered
in the uniFLOW OM server. There are two authentication mode options:
authentication to the machine and to the Login and Document Release function,
with various log-in methods such as by an ID card* or by entering a PIN code. (See
"Authentication Modes by the uniFLOW OM Integration," on p. 3 and "Log-in
Methods by the uniFLOW OM Integration," on p. 4.)
* Optional NT-ware's MiCard Reader is required.
Login and Document Release
You can set the machine to keep documents unprinted until the user who sent the
print data logs in to the machine or the Login and Document Release function. The
documents are printed out only when the user logs in at the machine. This means
the user can securely collect confidential documents and eliminate the problem of
forgotten printouts in the machine's output trays. This function is made possible by
the uniFLOW OM server (as a print server) that holds print jobs and wait for the
user to log in. For instructions on how to perform the Login and Document Release
function, see "Keeping Documents Unprinted Until Logging-In (Login and
Document Release)," on p. 12.
Using Cost Centers
You can register cost centers (accounting tables for counting the costs for
performed jobs) and allot them to users in the uniFLOW OM server. Examples of
cost centers usage are described below:
IMPORTANT
The examples of usage below are available only when you select the 'authentication to
the machine' described in "Authentication Modes by the uniFLOW OM Integration," on
p. 3.
■
Selecting a cost center when logging in:
When a user logs in at the machine, a screen prompting the user to select a cost
center may appear on the touch panel display. The user selects a cost center so
that the uniFLOW OM server counts the cost for the user's job.
