Introduction to DSS
The HP Digital Sending Software (DSS) extends the embedded Digital Sending functionality of
supported devices by adding the following capabilities:
●
Routing e-mail through a central point (the DSS server), which simplifies SMTP security
management in environments with Access Control List security.
●
Multiple SMTP gateways for redundancy in delivering e-mail jobs.
●
Encrypted e-mail channel with SMTP over SSL.
●
Sending fax through LAN Fax and Internet Fax servers.
●
Public- and Personal Address Books.
●
Access to Microsoft® Exchange Contacts from the front panel of the device with the Exchange
Contacts feature.
●
The LDAP Replication feature allows access to the company directory while off-loading the
LDAP servers.
●
The Workflow feature allows easy and consistent scanning into company workflow processes.
Metadata can be collected for each job using custom keys or built-in system prompts, allowing
integration with third-party applications.
●
OCR processing of e-mail, folder and FTP jobs through the I.R.I.S OCR engine to create
searchable output.
●
Easy and intuitive interface to manage Digital Sending features through the Configuration Utility.
●
Central logging of document sending activity for tracking, auditing, and troubleshooting
purposes.
● Additional file types, such as PDF/A and Compact PDF.
DSS runs as a software service on a networked server. Supported devices are “DSS aware,” which
means they have components built into the firmware that allow them to make use of the services/
features offered by DSS. Once a device is added into DSS, all of the Digital Sending features are
managed through the Configuration Utility.
