Physical Security 

In FIPS terminology, the firmware module is defined as a multi-chip standalone 
cryptographic module. The module runs on Lexmark printers listed in 

Module

 

Specification

 section. The printers are made of all production-grade components 

and are enclosed in a strong plastic and steel case, which surrounds all of the 
module’s internal components, including all hardware and firmware. 

 

While purely a firmware module, the FIPS 140-2 evaluated platforms must have 
been tested for and meet applicable FCC EMI and EMC requirements for business 
use as defined by 47 Code of Federal Regulations, Part15, Subpart B.
