Description

Printing system with identity identification function and printing method Technical Field The present disclosure relates to printing apparatuses, and more particularly to a printing system with identity recognition function and a printing method thereof. Background Currently, some printing apparatuses on the market do not have an encryption function. That is, when the printing device receives a print command of a document from the user device, the printing device directly prints the document, so that the document is at risk of being taken by a non-designated person, and the confidential document is more likely to leak. To solve the foregoing problems, printing apparatuses having a cryptographic function have been developed. The user can set the password when the user terminal device inputs the printing instruction of a file, and the printing instruction containing the password is transmitted to the printing equipment, wherein the password contains user-defined characters, numbers or a combination thereof. Then, the user moves to the printing device to input the password, and the printing device confirms that the password input by the user is matched with the password in the printing instruction and then performs the printing operation of the document. However, the above-described cryptographic functions still have drawbacks. For example, when different user end devices set the same password for respective printed documents and simultaneously transmit the same passwords to the same printing device for printing, the documents may still be printed out and misfetched by unspecified personnel. In addition, the security level of the above-mentioned password encryption function is low, and the password is easy to be maliciously obtained by the careful personnel, so that the probability of the file being mistakenly or stolen by unspecified personnel is increased, and the problem of leakage of confidential files is caused. In view of the foregoing, there is a need for developing a printing system and a printing method with identity recognition function to solve the problems of the prior art. Disclosure of Invention The purpose of the scheme is to provide a printing system with an identity identification function and a printing method, so that the effects of improving the encryption level of printed files, avoiding the files from being taken away by unspecified personnel, reducing the leakage risk of confidential files and the like are achieved.
