Abstract

A method, a non-transitory computer-readable medium, and a multifunction printer (MFP) that generate a signed digital document from a document generated by the multifunction printer. The method includes displaying a third-party screen for a third-party scan or fax workflow; switching to a multifunction printer vendor signing screen and obtaining signing settings for the generation of the signed digital document; calculating a document hash of the generated document using a cryptographic hashing algorithm; sending a digital signing request to a signing server, the digital signing request including the document hash of the generated document and an authenticated account identity of a user; receiving a digital signature and a public digital signing certificate for the user from the signing server; generating the signed digital document by embedding the digital signature and the public digital signing certificate of the user into the generated document; and switching to the third-party screen for the workflow.
