SMART TONER SECURITY SYSTEM

摘要

In an authentication system for a printer and a printer toner, wherein the printer has printer security algorithm and the printer toner has a toner security algorithm, the printer and the toner exchange encrypted information through security algorithms appointed therebetween so as to protect a genuine toner from imitation. A toner security system is provided to which is constructed to support techniques of different levels according to toner quality even for a remanufactured toner instead of a genuine product through the printer and printer toner security algorithms to enable the genuine toner and the quality-controlled remanufactured toner to be used and to protect the printer and toner security algorithms from hacking.
