Abstract

Obtaining exclusive control of a printing device by deferring printing of print data in a print queue. To obtain control, the recipient performs a process which may include authentication of the recipient. Control may be obtained either before the recipient is authenticated or after a successful authentication process. After the recipient has obtained control, print data in the print queue is temporarily deferred from being printed. The recipient may then select a print job to print, including selecting a print job from among the print jobs deferred in the print queue, or selecting a file to print over a network, including the Internet or an intranet. Further, printing device resources utilized in printing data during the period of exclusive control may be tracked and correlated to the recipient who has control.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to obtaining temporary exclusive control of a printing device. More particularly the present invention relates to a system in which a recipient gains control of a printer with or without authentication. After the recipient has gained control, the printer appears "busy" to other printer requests and the recipient can select print jobs to print, including selecting print jobs on a network. Background technique [0002] When a print job is sent to a printer, once the print job is printed, the recipient must go to the printer to obtain the printed printout. When arriving at the printer to pick up the printout, the recipient often finds that their printout has been left there. This may be because the recipient's print job is still pending after other print jobs in the print queue, or because the print job may have been taken by someone else accidentally or on purpose. For fax sending, there is a similar problem. In order to...
