About this file

This Configuration Specifications document, issued by the California Department of General Services, Procurement Division (DGS-PD), establishes technical requirements for printers and multifunction devices (MFDs) to be procured under a statewide contract. The specification document details fifteen distinct device categories, ranging from desktop color inkjet printers to high-volume monochrome and color MFDs, with standardized requirements for functionality, performance metrics, and environmental compliance. The contract is structured as a two-year base term with three optional one-year renewal periods, establishing mandatory procurement guidelines for all State of California departments and making the contract available for use by local governmental agencies on a statewide basis.

The configuration specifications establish uniform technical standards across all device categories, including minimum requirements for print speed (measured in impressions per minute per ISO/IEC 24734), print resolution, scan quality, paper handling capacity, memory, connectivity options, and duty cycle ratings. All devices must comply with Energy Star certification, EPEAT 2.0 Bronze standards, and include a minimum three-year warranty with next business day onsite or ship exchange service. Mandatory value-added services include asset tagging administration, installation, DoD 5220.22-M or NIST 800-88 compliant data sanitization, take-back/disposition services, and deployment and logistics support. For multifunction devices, strict business security requirements apply, including patch management, complex password protocols, firewall configuration, hard drive encryption, and audit logging capabilities. Desktop and portable devices require WCAG/VPAT accessibility compliance, while all devices must achieve energy-saving mode activation within 30 minutes of inactivity.

Requirements for Business Security
A. Ensure the MFD is able to:
1) Have patches applied to comply with the original equipment manufacturer's and software vendor's maintenance.
2) Prohibit large group distribution via outbound e-mail.
3) Delete or disable any software applications that are not required or approved for the operation of the MFD.
4) Disable all unneeded management protocols and services (such as DHCP, SMTP, and BOOTP).
5) Replace any default passwords with complex passwords.
6) Disable dial-in diagnostic capabilities.
7) Be remotely managed by only an authorized IT administrator personnel from specific (non-publicized) Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
8) Be configured to prevent unauthorized IT administrator personnel from altering the global configuration of the MFD.
9) Disable the re-print feature at the discretion of the purchaser.
10) Maintain its configuration state (passwords, service settings, etc.) after a power down or reboot occurs.
11) Lock and prevent unauthorized access to the hard drive.
12) Be isolated on a local area network, utilizing Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) switches or router controls.
13) Have a static IP address so that if Domain Name System cache is poisoned (corrupted), print files containing sensitive data cannot be redirected, leading to the further compromise of sensitive data.
14) Have a firewall or route rule established in the internal network to block all ingress and egress traffic from the enclave perimeter to the MFD.
B. For MFDs that use print spoolers:
1) Verify the MFD is configured to restrict jobs to only print spoolers and cannot directly accept one or more large print jobs from unauthorized users (to prevent denial of service).
2) Verify the MFD is able to implement IP address restrictions or may be installed behind a firewall, switch or router with an appropriate discretionary access control (DAC) list.
3) Verify the MFD is able to restrict access to unauthorized users and restrict users to managing their own individual jobs.
4) Ensure the MFD is able to have auditing fully enabled. Auditing includes but not limited to find and log the malicious activities such as password change, failed logons, failed accesses to MFD, administrative privilege usage, etc.
5) Ensure the state agency may retain physical custody of the hard drive when repair is required or at end of life.
6) Ensure the MFD is flash upgradeable and is configured to use the most current firmware available.
