    By setting a PIN to a document when printing from a computer, the document is held in the memory of the machine. This function is called "Secure Print," and the document that is protected by a PIN is called a "secured document." Using Secure Print keeps printouts of confidential documents from being left unattended.

    Preparing for Using Secure Print
    Before using Secure Print, make sure that Secure Print is enabled on the computer.
    IMPORTANT
    To perform the following procedure, log on to the computer as a user with administrator privileges.

    1. Open the printer folder.

    2. Right-click the printer icon and click [Printer properties] (or [Properties]).

    Printing via Secure Print
    This section describes how to print a document from an application as a secured document. The first part of this section describes how to send a secured document to the machine, and the second part of this section describes how to print the secured document on the machine.

    Sending a Secured Document from a Computer to the Machine

    1. Open a document in an application and display the print dialog box.

    • How to display the print dialog box differs for each application. For more information, see the instruction manual for the application you are using.

    (a) [Document Name]

    The document name is automatically set based on the information from the application. If you want to change the document name, enter up to 32 alphanumeric characters for a new document name.

    (b) [User Name]

    The user name is automatically set based on information such as your computer name or computer logon name. If you want to change the user name, enter up to 32 alphanumeric characters for a new user name.

    (c) [PIN]

    Specify a PIN of up to seven digits for the secured document. On the operation panel, enter this PIN again to print the secured document. If a PIN has already been registered in the printer driver, the registered PIN is displayed in symbols such as "*******".

    NOTE:
    Set easy-to-identify document names and user names
    When printing a secured document, a list of user names may be displayed on the screen. By default, the document name and user name for the secured document are automatically set. The displayed user name, for example, is automatically taken from information such as your computer name or computer logon name. If document and user names are unfamiliar and hard for you to identify with the secured document, replace them with more familiar names.

    • After the secured document is sent to the machine, it is held in the memory of the machine until it is printed.

    NOTE
    Do not let too many secured documents accumulate in the memory
    • Secured documents can be held in the memory of the machine for 30 minutes*, but during that time they occupy the memory and may prevent the machine from printing even ordinary (not secured) documents. Make sure that you print your secured documents as soon as you can.
    * 30 minutes is the default time period, but you can change it.
    • You can check how much memory is being used for secured documents.
