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 most important benefit is that it can be used to
print confidential data securely. For example, a Human Resource (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 page of code and
not the actual wage slip.
