Using the Mailbox/Collator
2-20 ❖ LN17 and LN17ps Printers User Guide
Printing to the
Mailbox/Collator
Using an LN17 printer driver, select a specific “Bin” or
“Collator” as the paper output destination for your job, then
print your job.
• Bins are numbered from 1 - 10 (top to bottom).
• Each bin can hold up to 50 sheets of 20 lb (75 g/m
2
) paper.
When a bin becomes full:
— the remainder of the print job is diverted to the top
output tray when the Bin Full option (in the Mailbox
Menu) is set to Send to Standard.
— printing stops when the Bin Full option is set to Stop
Printing. Once you remove the output, the printer
resumes printing.
Password
Protecting Jobs
Using the LN17 Control Panel, you can set a different
password for each mailbox bin and one password for the
collator mode. A job sent to a password-enabled bin can only
be removed by the individual with the bin password; a job sent
to the collator can only be removed from the password-enabled
collator mode by the individual with the collator password.
Digital recommends that you use the Mailbox/Collator
exclusively in either collator mode or bin mode, not both, if
you plan to set passwords. The only way to control the mode
in which it is used is through the use of passwords. If
passwords are enabled for bins but disabled for collator, jobs
sent to password-enabled bins can be removed by anyone
who chooses “collator” as the output tray (because no
password is needed). For this reason, Digital recommends
you either enable or disable passwords for both bins and
collator mode.
• If you plan to use passwords for bins, also set a password
for collator mode. Distribute individual bin passwords to
the appropriate users. Do not distribute the password for
collator mode.
• If you plan to use a password for collated jobs, also set
passwords for each bin. Distribute the collator password
