Document Scan Lock (QR Code)

This section describes the Document Scan Lock settings using a QR code.

By using a QR code, you can embed scan lock information on the output to restrict unauthorized copying. You can also embed tracking information, such as the user name, date, and device name, so that you can find out who, when, and with which machine the copy was made.
