Encryption of Scan Data

You can assign a password for browsing data to the scan data saved in PDF format.

You can select whether to create a file for all pages or each page of a document (PDF + Package), or to create a file for each page (PDF + Divided).

Tips
  • If a PDF file is created based on PDF/A in this machine, it cannot be encrypted.

Reference
  • For details about the scan operation procedure, refer to Overview of Scan.

  • When HDD Encryption Setting is enabled, Divided is not available. For details about HDD Encryption Setting, refer to HDD Encryption Setting.
