Features
The Unified Client for HP supports the following features:
- Authentication
- Requires users to enter valid authentication information to unlock the HP device functions. Users can enter their authentication data via the device panel, or by using a valid authentication card (when authentication cards are implemented).
- Authorization
- The Unified Client for HP offers different levels of authorization, which control how users access the applications on the device. You can set authorization to administrator, user, or guest profiles. Kofax authorization can be disabled, and the administrator can use the HP EWS page or other third-party tool to configure authorization to a device. If Kofax authorization is disabled, the administrator must lock the Kofax Unified Client for HP to user access and set Kofax as the authentication application.
- Follow-You Printing
- After logging in at the HP device, users can access the virtual print queue to "pull" a print job to this device. Through the Follow-You screen on the HP device, users can see a list of documents in the queue, then select, delete, or release documents for printing. On scan only devices, the Follow-You Printing workflow is hidden.
- Card self-registration
- Allows users to associate an unassigned card with their user credentials. Once associated, each time the user swipes the card, the system automatically recognizes the card and associated user.
- Billing code support
- Users can change their jobs to a particular code, and the Equitrac database tracks the characteristics of jobs changed to the code. Billing codes must be enabled on the Equitrac server.
- Support for multiple DWS servers
- You can designate up to four different DWS servers for failover purposes: one primary, and up to three backup servers. These backup servers allow users to continue working with the associated HP device until the primary DWS server is online again.
- Support for multiple DCE servers
- You can designate up to four different DCE servers: one primary, and up to three backup servers. We recommend that the primary DCE is located on-site to allow for the fastest possible data transfer. Other DCE servers can be located off-site.
- Card readers
- The Unified Client for HP supports Kofax card readers, HP card readers, and third-party card readers. Card readers are configured through DRS.
- Capture
- On print only devices all scan workflows are hidden as there is no scanner attached to these devices.
