Use this page to print a password-protected PDF file directly.
Users can set a PDF Temporary Password if necessary. Note that users cannot set the password before logging in if user authentication is enabled.

Note

- The PDF Temporary Password cannot be set if a PDF Fixed Password is already set.
- When you are logged in as Machine Administrator, you can set a PDF Fixed Password, but not a PDF Temporary Password.
- The PDF Fixed Password set from the Web browser is the same as the PDF password set on the printer control panel.
