Watermark configuration method, watermark configuration apparatus, and image formation apparatus

Abstract

The invention provides a watermark configuration method, a watermark configuration apparatus, and an image formation apparatus. The method includes steps: providing a first watermark content configuration picture, and setting a permission for editing first watermark content by a user and / or first watermark content through the first watermark content configuration picture; and providing a second watermark content configuration picture, and setting a permission for editing second watermark content by the user and / or second watermark content through the second watermark content configuration picture, wherein after a first watermark is inserted into a document, the corresponding first watermark content is visible, and after a second watermark is inserted into the document, the corresponding second watermark content is invisible, or the corresponding second water market cannot be directly seen. According to the technical scheme, the user and / or an administrator can edit different watermarkcontents so that the requirement of watermark management for the administrator can be met, and the personalized requirements of watermark setting for different users can be met.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of security control, in particular to the technical field of watermark insertion control, in particular to a watermark configuration method, a watermark configuration device and an image forming device capable of configuring watermark policies. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the rapid development of electronic information technology, many fields (such as government departments, or enterprise R&D departments), etc., need to control the security of printed documents; a common solution is to insert watermarks in printed documents, and pass the watermark Documentation is traced. [0003] In the prior art, there are usually two ways to set the watermark; one is to let the user set the watermark through the operation interface of the image forming device driver; the other is to let the administrator set the watermark on the management server. Neither of these two methods can meet the needs of admi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Only allowing users to edit watermarks by themselves will cause some users to edit watermark information that cannot be used to trace documents, and even if an administrator configures watermarks in the driver, uninstalling and reinstalling the driver can delete the administrator The problem of the result of setting the watermark; only letting the administrator set the watermark content through the management server not only does not meet the individual needs of the user to set the watermark, but also the operation of setting the watermark on the management server is cumbersome, and the maintenance cost of the management server needs to be increased
