Key features include: 1. Prohibit Printing All Files - Strictly intercepts all print requests. - Suitable for scenarios requiring full control over printing, significantly reducing data leakage risks. 2. Prohibit Printing Files Containing Sensitive Words - Enterprises can customize sensitive words or select from classification libraries. - Print requests containing sensitive information are automatically blocked, preventing accidental or malicious data leakage. 3. Print Approval Mechanism - Employees must submit print requests, which require approval through a designated workflow before printing. - Provides an additional layer of security to ensure sensitive information is controlled.   ### **Print Watermark** Print watermark is an effective anti-leakage measure, adding text or dot-pattern watermarks to enhance document traceability and anti-counterfeiting. - Watermark Types - Text Watermark: Adds IP address, computer name, date, or other info for document management and traceability. - Dot-pattern Watermark: Adds patterns or logos to further enhance document authenticity. - Watermark Management - Watermark Removal Requests: Employees may submit a request to print documents without watermarks, subject to approval. - Flexible for different scenarios, improves work efficiency while protecting enterprise data.
