Xerox 497K18121 Programmable RFID Card Reader

Bring access control directly to the MFP with the Xerox 497K18121 programmable RFID card reader. Designed to install inside the built-in card reader bay, it supports badge-based authentication at the device, helping organizations manage who can print, scan, copy, or release jobs. For shared environments, that means less friction for authorized users and tighter control over device access. This is the kind of accessory that matters in enterprise print fleets where security, accountability, and workflow efficiency all have to coexist. By integrating inside the MFP chassis, it preserves a clean installation and avoids external add-ons that can complicate deployment or create another point of failure. It is a practical fit for offices that need user authentication tied to existing identity cards or RFID credentials. Use it when you want to standardize access at the device level and keep the user experience simple. For procurement teams, it is a targeted upgrade that supports secure print environments without replacing the MFP platform itself.
