Printing a private job

The private printing feature lets a user specify that a job is not printed
until that user releases it using a 4-digit personal identification
number (PIN) through the printer control panel. The user specifies the
PIN in the driver and it is sent to the printer as part of the print job.

Specifying a private job

To specify that a job is private from the driver, select the Private Job
option and type a 4-digit PIN.

Releasing a private job

The user can print a private job from the control panel.
