How to print sensitive information.


Printing Sensitive Information


What if I have to print sensitive information that shouldn't sit on the copier? You'll use something called Secure Print.  You must have already set up normal printing using the instructions above.

MacOS

Open the file you need to print securely and click File, Print.
In some applications, such as Preview, you may have to click "Show Details" to choose Secure Print.  Applications like Word do not require this extra step.
