Locked Print Setup & Use for Ricoh MFP Based on a Ricoh document: cheet sheet for locked print.doc Screen shots are for Windows XP. Paul Mullins

The Locked Print function allows a user to enter a password for his or her print job when sending documents to a remote printer. Locked Print processes (stores) the print job at the MultiFunction Printer (MFP), but does not print it until the user arrives at the machine and enters the required print job password.  Locked Print is useful when printing documents of a sensitive nature to shared printers (password matters). It is also a convenient feature that prevents a colleague from inadvertently picking up your print out mixed with their material (password doesn’t matter).  The downside – print jobs that you do not “manually” release to be printed will remain in the printer’s memory. Ricoh service people will not know your password and cannot remove old print jobs. Hence, our Ricoh representative suggested that everyone simply use “123” as his or her password. This works as long as you don't care that a colleague (or student "in the know") could print the document.
