Overview

As a security measure against unauthorized users and information leaks, authentication is used for printers shared in offices by linking them with entry/exit cards. This solution provides a printer control panel unit with card authentication via NFC (Near field communication) capability.

System Benefits:

  • Easy security/authentication using NFC connectivity, ideal for secure corporate settings 
  • Solution provides flexibility in the design by separating the authentication from the control panel functions
  • High-performance NFC IC reduces the load on the host MCU and requires less of the MCU's ROM

Applications

  • Multifunction printer
  • Laser printer
  • Office equipment
