Printing Lockout
Printing Lockout allows locking or unlocking of a printer using an assigned PIN. When locked, every job the printer receives
will buffer to the hard disk. A user can print jobs only by entering the correct PIN on the operator panel. A PIN can be
assigned through the Web page of the device.
Note: This setting is only available when a hard disk is installed.
Note: Back channel data will be processed while the printer is locked. Reports such as user or event logs
can be retrieved from a locked printer.

http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
