Stamp Out Security Threats with PrintSecure

In the modern age of digitization, every device that is connected through Wi-Fi or other network capabilities can fall victim to data breaches and hackers. This can even include your thermal printers. If these products are connected to the rest of your network, there can become gateways for hackers to access the entirety of your company’s important data. As a result, having reliable security means keeping printers safe as well. 

There’s a solution to help avoid any problems all while getting the most out of your thermal printer, and that’s PrintSecure from Zebra. These tools can help… 

  • Configure your printer with a more secure connection
  • Control data swapping
  • Block any unauthorized access

  • Look further into any vulnerabilities or discrepancies 

PrintSecure utilizes an automated Wi-Fi management system to eliminate any manual processes and ensure each printer you own has a unique and updated certificate. This also means secure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth settings to help avoid accidental printer setting changes. These can help to create better security protocols for your thermal printers and allow them to continue to aid in increasing productivity. 

4 Advantages PrintSecure Can Provide for Your Printers

PrintSecure can help identify and detect potential anomalies and protect your printers from cyber threats. A closer look into some of the measures taken would feature the following: 

1. Visibility and Management – Thanks to Link-OS, you can manage all printers connected to your network. This means seeing security updates and other events with real-time statuses and updates so your team can make quick and decisive decisions should there be a security concern. 

2. Responsibility and Reassurance – People make mistakes, which in turn can lead to data leaks or a security threat. Assign your employees their own individual Wi-Fi security certificates to ensure employee responsibility.  You can also create user-specified passwords that can alter a printer’s operating system, thus making it more difficult to access an individual’s information. 

3. Encryption and Authorization – As mentioned before, PrintSecure can allow your company to create and utilize secure connections. This service also allows you to block unauthorized access, control data exchanges, and ensure authenticated settings changes with PrintSecure’s Protected Mode. 

4. Relocation and Reliability – You deserve a printer that can test time. Having a printer that can handle better security and new updates is important. However, should the time come to replace or retire a printer, transferring use settings or removing files can all be done with a few simple commands. This can ensure that nothing will be lost when it’s time to make a device swap.
