Printing confidential documents
- Secure Print -
Secure Print is available if the printer has HDD Extension Kit (optional) or RAM disk is configured
validly.
Important
• In case the hard disk fails, we recommend you to back up the hard disk data on your computer.
• All documents stored may be deleted if the printer power is turned off and on, while using RAM disk.
Refer to
• How to enable RAM disk: "Enabling a RAM Disk" (P. 329)
Secure Print
Secure Print is a feature that allows you to send a password-protected document to the printer.
Instead of printing the document immediately, the printer stores it temporarily until you use the
control panel to start printing manually. This feature also can store documents that are not
password-protected. By storing frequently-used documents in the printer, you can print them
whenever you want, without having to send them each time from your computer.
Note
• Whether or not to delete a Secure Print job after printing it can be specified when you print it from the control
panel. For more information, refer to "Control Panel Operations" (P. 74).
• Secure Print output is not supported when [Disabled] is selected for [Secure Print] on the control panel.
• Password input is always required when the [Minimum Passcode Length] setting on the [Configuration] tab >
[Installable Options] > [Installable Options] dialog box of the printer’s properties dialog box is [1] or greater.
