Printing to the Mailbox/Collator

Password Protecting Jobs

Using an LN17 printer driver, select a specific “Bin” or “Collator” as the paper output destination for your job, then print your job.

Bins are numbered from 1 - 10 (top to bottom).

Each bin can hold up to 50 sheets of 20 lb (75 g/m2) paper. When a bin becomes full:

the remainder of the print job is diverted to the top output tray when the Bin Full option (in the Mailbox Menu) is set to Send to Standard.

printing stops when the Bin Full option is set to Stop Printing. Once you remove the output, the printer resumes printing.

Using the LN17 Control Panel, you can set a different password for each mailbox bin and one password for the collator mode. A job sent to a password-enabled bin can only be removed by the individual with the bin password; a job sent to the collator can only be removed from the password-enabled collator mode by the individual with the collator password.

Digital recommends that you use the Mailbox/Collator exclusively in either collator mode or bin mode, not both, if you plan to set passwords. The only way to control the mode in which it is used is through the use of passwords. If passwords are enabled for bins but disabled for collator, jobs sent to password-enabled bins can be removed by anyone who chooses “collator” as the output tray (because no password is needed). For this reason, Digital recommends you either enable or disable passwords for both bins and collator mode.

If you plan to use passwords for bins, also set a password for collator mode. Distribute individual bin passwords to the appropriate users. Do not distribute the password for collator mode.

If you plan to use a password for collated jobs, also set passwords for each bin. Distribute the collator password
