Enable the Hold All Jobs Feature

You can enable and configure the Hold All Jobs feature to require users to release print jobs manually at the control panel.  

Configuring the Hold all Jobs Feature

1. Access the Embedded Web Server and log in to the Embedded Web Server as a System Administrator.

2. In the Embedded Web Server, click Properties→Apps.

3. Click Printing→Hold All Jobs.

4. For Enablement, select an option.

   • Hold all Jobs in a Private Queue: The printer holds sent jobs in a locked folder. Users are required to log in at the control panel to view, print, and delete jobs.

   • Hold all Jobs in a Public Queue: The printer holds sent jobs in an unlocked folder. Users are not required to log in at the control panel unless accessing a Secure Print job.

5. For Unidentified Job Policies, select an option.

   • Hold Jobs; All Users can Manage Jobs: This option allows all users to view, print, and delete unidentified jobs. Users are required to enter a passcode to release Secure Print jobs.

   • Hold Jobs; Only Administrators can Manage Jobs: This option allows only system administrators to view, print, and delete unidentified jobs. System administrators are required to enter a passcode to release Secure Print jobs.

   • Delete Jobs Immediately: This option deletes all unidentified jobs. Deleted jobs appear in a list at the control panel in the Completed Jobs queue.

   • Print Jobs Immediately: This option immediately prints all unidentified jobs except for unidentified Secure Print jobs. Users are required to enter a passcode to release Secure Print jobs.
     
     Note:

     • Unidentified jobs are jobs that are not associated with a user name. Unidentified jobs originate from a computer that does not require a user to log in. Examples include jobs sent from a DOS or UNIX window environment using LPR, Port 9100, or from the Jobs tab in the Embedded Web Server.

     • Changing the setting for Unidentified Jobs Policy deletes existing unidentified jobs that are waiting for authentication.
