Enable Release Codes

You must enable Release Codes in Workflow before you can configure auto-generated codes or allow the user to enter their own code after submitting a print job to a secure queue.

  1. Select Administration from the ribbon.
  2. Select SecureSettings.
  3. Under the Release Code section, set the Use Release Codes option to Yes. The remaining options in the Release Codes section will now be editable:
    • Use release codes: Enable this option to enable the use of release codes in Workflow. When release codes are enabled on a queue, users must enter a release code at the MFP to release a secure print job. When enabling this option, also set the Code length below. See Configure Release Codes.

    • Anonymous release: Controls if a user must have a Printanista Workflow account before they can release using a release code. When enabling this option, also set the Anonymous jobs expire in field.

    • Auto Release Code length: Set the length of Auto generated release codes. When an anonymous user submits a secure job to the system a release code will be generated. This field controls the maximum length of the release code but does not affect the length of manually entered release codes.

  4. In addition, consider adjusting these options within the General section:
    • Jobs expire in (days):  If a print job sits in the secure queue without release after this set number of days, the job is deleted from the queue.

    • Anonymous jobs expire in (minutes): If the guest user has not released the anonymous print job within this set number of minutes, the job is deleted from the queue.

    • Max allowable jobs expire in (days): Print jobs that sit unreleased in the secure queue are deleted after this set number of days.
