Printer watermark for security

Hi,

I'm looking some kind of software solution (AS printer server) that allow that every time that I send some document to a printer, add in the paper a watermark with the date-time and the user name that are printing the document.

We need to have logs of all documents that are send to the printer, and also that the paper has included some information printed about the security for tracking

Thanks

I found this website that claims to do what you require. I have not used the software, but a 30 day free trial is available.

Thanks, the software proposed is exactly what I need, but we need also that works for MacOS. I think that I need a solution that works as print server by network?

Thanks

if the printer driver for Windows supports watermark and you are able to share the printer on the Windows computer, then any computer, including OS X and Windows, can print with watermark.

you may remove "manage printer" permissions from the security settings of the shared printer in order to prevent general users from changing the printer preferences, hence watermark setting will be mandatory.

moreover, some vendors such as HP provide Print Administrator Resource Kit just for this purpose. what's your printer model?
