The WF-C579R supports PCL/Adobe® PostScript® 3™, making it ideal for shared printing on a network, and its open-platform allows for seamless integration with enterprise applications such as Nuance Equitrac® Office/Express, Nuance eCopy ShareScan, PaperCut, and nddPrint. It also provides security features such as PIN number configuration for job release; user control access, printer and network settings via Web Config with printer’s IP address; SSL/TLS security; and IPsec.
