Printerm's Secure FontBox is a security device designed to store print resources such as forms, fonts, signatures and logos in non-volatile flash memory on a removable secure card. Because the secure card and the resources it contains can be kept in an appropriate secure location, users have absolute security against unwanted printing of documents such as checks, drafts or other such documents.

The Secure FontBox is packaged in a small enclosure that has a parallel, a parallel output port and convenient provisions for the card.  Resources are loaded into the secure card by plugging it into the module and connecting the module’s parallel input port to the parallel printer port of a PC.  In normal operation the Secure FontBox’s output is connected to the standard parallel port of any HP PCL or compatible printer and its input is connected to the printers data source. When the resources are needed for printing, the card is plugged into the Secure FontBox. After verification the resources in the card are automatically loaded into the printer.

When check printing is complete and the card is removed, all resources previously loaded into the printer are automatically deleted. Printing is unaffected by the Secure FontBox because it is transparent to all host data streams.

The complete system includes all necessary cables and a Removable Security Card. Custom system programming, forms design and additional cards are available.
