Communicating With Encrypted Documents (Encrypted Communication); Registering New Encryption Keys - Kyocera KM-1650 Operation Manual

Communicating with Encrypted Documents (Encrypted Communication)

Encrypted Communication involves the encryption of documents prior to their transmission. In this
way, third parties are prevented from seeing the actual documents even if they should be able to
access the transmission itself.
Those documents are then decrypted and printed out in their original form only after receipt by the
receiving party, making this function extremely beneficial for sending strictly confidential information.

Registering New Encryption Keys

The Encryption Key to be used must be selected by the transmitting party during the registration of
the corresponding abbreviated number or one-touch key – both designated for Encrypted
Transmission –, and by the receiving party during registration of the corresponding Encryption Box.
Each Encryption Key contains 16 characters that can include any combination of the numerals 0 – 9
and the letters A – F. This key will then be registered under a 2-digit "Encryption Key ID" from 01 –
20.

•
Encryption Communication is only possible if the other party's fax possesses the same
Encryption Communication capabilities as yours.
To successfully accomplish encryption, and then the corresponding decryption, both the
transmitting and receiving parties must use the same 16-character Encryption Key. If the
Encryption Keys used by both parties do not match EXACTLY, Encrypted Communication will
not be possible. Therefore, it is necessary for both parties to determine, in advance, the
Encryption Key that will be used and register it under a 2-digit Encryption Key ID
