Printing Simultaneously with Authentication on this Machine ([ID&Print])

About ID & Print

ID & Print is a function that saves print data to the ID & Print User Box of this machine when user authentication is installed. This function does not print data immediately, thereby preventing printed materials from being missing or left.

You need to perform user authentication on this machine to print the data saved in the User Box. Therefore, this function is suitable for safely printing highly confidential documents. When authentication succeeds, the print data of the login user is automatically printed. This enhances security as well as ensures smooth operation.
