Storing a Locked Print file

This section explains how to store a Locked Print file in the machine using the printer driver.

You can also store a Locked Print file in the machine using the application corresponding to the machine. For details about the application, see the manuals for the application.

1Open the file you want to print on your computer.

2On the [File] menu, click [Print...].

3In the [Select Printer] area, select the name of this machine, and then click [Preferences].

4Click the [Setup] tab, and then select the [Locked Print] check box.

The [Password: (4 to 8 digits)] and [User ID: (1 to 9 alphanumeric letters)] text boxes become available.

The [User ID: (1 to 9 alphanumeric letters)] text box contains the login user name of your computer account or the user code used for the previous Locked Print job.

5Type the password (containing 4 to 8 digits) and user ID (containing 1 to 9 alphanumeric characters), and then click [OK].

The user ID will be used to identify your Locked Print file on the machine's control panel.

6Execute a print command.

The print job is stored in the machine as a Locked Print file. You can print the file by entering the password using the control panel.

Note

  • The locked print file is automatically erased from the machine's memory when it is printed out or when the machine's power is turned off.

  • The machine can store up to 5 jobs or 5 MB of Locked Print data at a time.

  • Even if the machine cannot store any more Locked Print files, the machine holds a new Locked Print file for the period of time specified in [Locked Print] under system settings before canceling the job. Within this time, you can print or delete the new Locked Print file. You can also print or delete an existing Locked Print file so that the new Locked Print file can be stored in the machine.
