Locked Print
Use this function to maintain privacy
when printing confidential documents
on the machine over a shared network.
Usually, it is possible to print data us-
ing the display panel once it is stored
in this machine. When using Locked
Print, it is not possible to print unless a
password is entered on the machine's
display panel. Your confidential docu-
ments will be safe from being viewed
by other people.
Limitation
❒ A Locked Print file cannot be stored
if:
• the total number of Sample Print,
Locked Print, Hold Print, and
Stored Print files in the machine is
over 100. (The maximum number
varies depending on the volume
of data in files.)
• the file contains over 1,000 pages.
• sent or stored files in the machine
contain over 9,000 pages in total.
Note
❒ If a Locked Print file has not been
stored properly, check the error
log on the control panel (see p.104
“Checking the Error Log”).
❒ Even after you turn off the ma-
chine, stored documents remain.
However, the [Auto Delete Tempo-
rary Print Jobs] or [Auto Delete Stored
Print Jobs] settings are applied first
(see p.128 “System”).
❒ If the application has a collate op-
tion, make sure it is not selected
before sending a print job. Locked
Print jobs are automatically collat-
ed by the printer driver as default.
If a collate option is selected in the
application print dialog box, more
sets than intended may be printed.
❒ After the Locked Print file is print-
ed, the job is automatically deleted.
