Help for authentication configuration

Secure print is where you enter a PIN code at the copier to release the print job. I think it's called the same for both Ricoh and Konica.

The output method on the print driver has a drop-down menu to select it and enter the PIN.

That may be something to try.
Bix if you use simple printing for secure print document and also If simple printing for secure print document is enabled, the computer login name is used as the document ID for Secure Print, so you can skip the entry of the document ID.

Enable ID&Print... As per tsbservice
Only works with user authentication not account track. But you can enable both.
Enable user name list to make things a bit easier.

Works a treat with a card reader.
The NFC works great if every body had a NFC capable phone.

Thanks a lot! But with this you lose the monitoring of the counters per user right?

UA can still count usage.

If you dont have a authentication device and expect user to type out username and password id suggest giving each user a nice short username like a double digit or something.

lots of guides on youtube for setting up UA and ID/Print

Hi, in the end I have found a satisfactory solution:
1. Enable authentication. Administrator - Authentication.
2. I create profiles without entering a password. So just username. I thought it was mandatory to enter both but fortunately it is not. Administrator - User registration.
3. In Administrator - Authentication - Administrator Settings I set ON to ID & Print.
4. Block printing without authentication.


With this technique, the printer prints only if it logs into the display. The meter can be consulted from the administrator settings or printed on series 8/iSeries while on series 4 it is only possible to print the report.

Here at the school district I work for we will use account track for machine access/limits. For printing, office staff personnel are set up to print directly and teachers are set up for secure print. We don't use user authentication on any of our machines. Secure print is completely independent of authentication and/or account track and can be used on an "unlocked" machine. When account track or authentication is used, the password must also be entered into the driver.

Glad you got to know how to use this on the bizhub machine. Many of my customers love this function.
