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’s control panel. The
user specifies the PIN in the driver and it is sent to the printer as
part of the print job.

Note

The private job feature also works if the printer does not have an
optional hard disk by using the printer’s available RAM memory. A
minimum of 32 MB of RAM is required. For moderate to heavy use
of this feature, HP recommends adding a hard disk.

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.
