Benefits of Using SSL/TLS
The primary benefit of using SSL/TLS is to guarantee secure printing over an IP network by restricting
unauthorised users from reading data sent to the machine. SSL's key selling point is that it can be used to print
confidential data securely. For example, an HR department in a large company may be printing wage slips on a
regular basis. Without encryption, the data contained on these wages slips can be read by other network users.
However, with SSL/TLS, anyone trying to capture the data will see a confusing page of code and not the actual
wage slip.
