Print Data Encryption

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Rijndael print data encryption is supported. It lets you send print data securely encrypted over the public TCP/IP network. This encryption prevents unauthorized reading or use of the data.

Each piece of data of a print file is encrypted by the IBM Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) before it is sent over TCP/IP. ICSF is part of the z/OS base product.

Add the ICSF load library CSF.SCSFMOD0 to the LNKLST or to the CA Spool STEPLIB concatenation.

To activate print data encryption, specify the 16/24/32 bytes hexadecimal encryption key using the printer node KEY parameter, and specify printer TCPDRIV option '4'.
