Printing Confidential Jobs

If you want to print a job that you do not want anyone else to see,

the printer can hold your job in memory until you arrive at the

printer.

NOTE: This only works with custom printer drivers. These drivers are

located on the drivers CD that shipped with your printer.

To print a confidential job:

1

In your word processor, spreadsheet, browser, or other

 

application, select File Print.

2

Click Properties (or Options, Printer, or Setup depending

 

on the application) to view the printer driver settings.

3

Click Help and refer to the topic “Confidential print” or

 

“Print and hold.Follow the instructions.

NOTE: If you send a large file to a shared network printer, it remains in

the printer memory until you print it. This could prevent others from

printing. Retrieve your print jobs as soon as possible. To check the

amount of memory in your printer, see Printing a menu settings page.
