The Lexmark Contactless Authentication Device is designed to provide secure authentication for users accessing connected network printers or multifunction printers (MFPs). This device connects easily to the front of compatible printers, allowing users to authenticate their access with a simple wave of a proximity card. It enhances security by preventing unauthorized access to sensitive information and allows organizations to manage access to specific functions such as email, fax, copy, or scan. The device is compliant with most industry standards and works seamlessly with virtually all contactless smart cards. An embedded solution and front USB port are required for functionality.
