b) Job execution and pending
PDL print job sent to the device as the Secured Print job is compiled on the job queue like
the normal PDL print job. Then, it is rasterized by PDL interpreter, saved in the image
server as the document image file and becomes pending here. However, all job information,
such as paper supply/output, the number of copies and finishing information remains.
c) Job started by entering the password
If the Secured Print job is pending, the display indicating the pending state appears on the
job status screen of the panel. If you select this job from the panel, you are required to enter
the password. When the password you entered is same as the password provided from the
printer driver, the pending job will be started. When the password is different, the job is
treated as an error, so it is not started and it remains in the pending state. Entering the
password to start the job cannot be executed before the Secured Print job transfers to the
pending state.
d) Output
The started Secured Print job is output to the printer engine with the top priority. This top
priority means that if the jobs can be changed in priority order, the Secured Print job can be
prioritized. This job is proceeded according to all job information specified by the printer
driver, etc., such as paper supply/output, the number of copies and finishing information.
When the processing is completed and all documents are output, the documents and job
information stored in the image server are deleted.
e) Operations for Secured Print jobs
Like other print jobs, Secured Print jobs can be deleted, interrupted, restarted and promoted
by operating from the status screen of the print job. Regarding these operations, the device
side does not distinguish from operations of the normal PDL job. That is, the password entry
is required only when the job is output. If you interrupt or restart the job during outputting,
the password setting and matching are not conducted.
f) Automatically delete of Secured Print Jobs
When Secured Print Job is continuing being suspended for a long time, apparatus deletes a
job automatically.
There are options for automatic job deletion time -- 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours. With a view
of security and memory usage, no option longer than 1 day is available. The elapsed time
starts after all the processes for the PDL data and the rendering for all the image data, for
