Printing Lockout
Printing Lockout lets you lock or unlock 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. You can assign a PIN
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.
To set Printing Lockout:
1 Open your Web browser. In the address line, enter the IP address of the printer you want to configure using the
format: http://ip_address/.
2 Click Configuration.
3 Under Other Settings, click Security.
4 Click Printer Lockout PIN.
