Printing a Confidential Document
Depending on the location of the machine, it is difficult to prevent unauthorized persons from viewing
prints lying in the machine's output trays. When printing confidential documents, use the Locked Print
function.
Locked Print
•
Using the printer's Locked Print function, store files in the machine as Locked Print files and then
print them from the control panel and retrieve them immediately, preventing others from
viewing them.
• Confidential documents can be printed regardless of the User Authentication settings.
• To store files temporarily, select [Stored Print] in the printer driver. If you select [Stored Print
(Shared)], you can also share these files.
Specifying Locked Print File
Using the printer driver, specify a Locked Print file.
If user authentication has been enabled, you must enter the login user name and login password using
the printer driver. For details about logging in, see the printer driver Help.
Locked Print is allowed even if user authentication is not yet configured. For configuring this setting, see
"Locked Print", Printer Reference.
