Printing Secure data4
Secure data 4
Secure documents are protected by a password and only those people who know the password will be able 
to print the document. The printer will not print the document when you send it for printing. To print the 
document, you must use the control panel of the printer (with the password). Secure data will be deleted after 
printing once.
When the area to spool data is full, the earliest data is automatically deleted first. The order of deleting data 
is not connected to the order of reprinting.
If you want to delete the spooled data, you can carry out this operation using the control panel or the web-
based management application.
Note • The secure data will be deleted when the printer is turned off.
• For more information about the settings in the printer driver and how to create secure data, see Secure 
Print on page 41 (For Windows
® printer driver), Advanced options on page 52 (For Windows® BR-Script
