Locked or Password Protected Printing

Hello:
Is it possible to print from a MAC using a password protected or locked print job that can only be retrieved by the sender at a network printer? If so, how is this done on a MAC?

I don't suspect there's anyway to protect text files
that I load on to my iPod, is there?
I've sucessfully done this already. The files remain perfectly readable but you won't ever understand them again (but that's a small price to pay for the peace of mind you get).
Looks like the screenlock's your only answer!

    How to show ipad application in itunes, but will only be assessable to owners, not the general public by using lock code/password protected on iTunes

    So if I understand you properly, I need to create EOs for all my list of values (which are based on views of Oracle apps tables) and base my VO on those EOs. And then I setup associations between these EOs and the Item EO. Then I include the these EOs in my Items VO and add the description attributes to my list of attributes. I had done this for the list of users, but for the views of Oracle I had just created read only VO. Sounds like that won't work if I want to display the description. I know what to do - I guess I was hoping there was a way to use the read only VO.
    Thanks

  • Password Protecting Printer connected to TC?

    Hey Everyone!
    In my house we use the TC as our wireless router and I have my printer connected to the TC so I can wirelessly print. However, my roommates have been abusing the fact that my printer is wirelessly available to them.
    Is there a way to password protect the printer so my roommates can still use our internet connection but not my printer?
    Thanks!

    Have you already installed Bonjour for Windows on your PC? I'm not sure as you didn't state if your were able to print before via your AXBS.

  • OSX server 10.6.7 password protect printer

    Hi,
    I am new to MACs Open Directory (OD), I am trying to password protect the printers so that when students prints it will ask them to enter user name and password! but i tried that option and its saying add admin user name and password...so I created a user in work group manager and gave it full admin rights in server and in local apps and settings. so when a student tried to print and gets a pop up saying enter password the teacher tried to use the "printer" user i created in OD it says type admin id and password which is local admin and I do not want to give that id and password to teachers because it gets leaked ot their favorit students and from there every one knows the password! so is there any solution to this problem please help we have only 6 days till the school opens.

    You may want to repost this in the Mac OS X Server v10.6 Snow Leopard forum.
    That being said, you can admin your printers using the CUPS interface of your MAC: http://localhost:631. I have LION installed, so the following URL may not be correct, but the Manual specifies how you can set up printers for computer labs and require authentication, cover pages, etc: http://localhost:631/help/policies.html?TOPIC=Getting+Started&QUERY=. Should the link not work on your Mac, go to the CUPS interface (link above), click the Online Help tab, click on the Getting Started link, then click on Managing Operation Policies, then choose Operation Policy for a Lab.
    I hope this put you on the right track.

  • Option to call one phone number when iPhone is locked and password protected

    Dear Sir or Madam,
    I have an idea which should be added to your iOS for iPhones. I think that many users would appreciate that and it could help to return a lot of lost iPhones to their owners. Even though I think that it could be used by emergency to contact the relatives in case something happen to the owner. The idea is to allow owner to define one or two numbers which could be called from the iPhone when it is locked and protected by password. Same option as it is for emergency nowadays.
    Please try to consider it.
    Thank you,
    Yours sincerely,

  • Can I password protect printer and monitor settings?

    I am the computer instructor at an elementary school. One of the teachers has a problem with a student who continually changes her preferred printer, her dispslay options, etc. She is running OS9, and I wondered if there was a way to protect her preferences like there is in OSX. She doesn't want to set up multiple users. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks for any input.

    Hi, twirlingelephants. Using a utility such as File Buddy 7.6, which could be run from a CD rather than installed on the Mac(s) in question (installing it where students could use it would be the height of folly), your teacher friend could set the Invisible flag on any files she doesn't want tampered with, including the Monitors control panel, the Chooser, even the whole Control Panels folder. Then those files or folders wouldn't appear at all in the Finder, the Apple menu, etc., even though they were still in place and functioning. The student's access to settings would literally vanish. He might be able to guess what had happened, but unless students are able to install software on the school computers willy-nilly (which certainly shouldn't be true), there wouldn't be anything he could do about it.
    Of course the student would probably decide to vent his frustration in some other way, so Don's suggestion of unpleasant consequences is certainly appropriate. But if the miscreant's identity is unknown, diverting his vandalism into some other realm could conceivably make him easier to spot.

  • Blackberry 9300 stolen dated 28/11/2011 from India Delhi.........Phone was locked and password protected

    l
    Hello!
    sir my blackberry is stolen it was very much locked with the password code how it can be located.
    can any one help to reply. We have currently blocked the tel number.
    Please help to locate the phone..........
    Thanks,
    Awaiting reply

    If the person enters the wrong password 10 times what will happen is that the phone will wipe itself and all of you personal data on it will be removed and cleared from your phone, meaning that at the very least, the person who stole your phone won't be able to access your data on it.
    Hopefully if your name and address were on it, you'll get it back, but that obviously depends on the guy who has it now.
    Now then, if your phone was purchased from your carrier, they should have the IMEI, so they will hopefully blacklist your phone. And if they do that, even if the person who stole the phone gets access to it after it's been wiped, they won't be able to actually use the phone to make calls and send text messages, so it will basically be a useless device to them or anyone else.

  • How can I lock / password protect an album?

    Thank you,

    HDP,
    There is a Mac 101 tutorial that may help. Try this page first, then scroll down to where it says "About User Accounts". A bit below that is "Creating User Accounts". It may or may not be useful for you, as I think the tutorials are based on Tiger, and your specs show you on Panther. But take a look, since it might be close enough to help you figure it out on your Mac.

  • Password/Firewall Protecting printer on WLAN?

    I have an Epson Workfroce 545 setup for wireless printing on my WLAN (using a Linksys E1000, firmware v2.1.02) and I'd like to figure out a way to keep anyone besides me from using it.
    My roommate loves to use my things without permission and without giving anything in return (ink and paper are expensive!) and I'm tired of paying for him to use my printer more than I do. He also likes to print things while I'm asleep, and being that the printer is in my room, it wakes me up when it starts up at three in the morning.
    My first solution was to tell him to stop using it without permission. This doesn't work and no amount of tech support in the world will make it work (he's not a reprogrammable robot, unfortunately).
    Then I decided I'd just keep the printer off, but there's nothing to stop him from turning it on again and using it when I'm not around.
    I spent a good amount of time googling phrases like "password protect printer," "password protect epson workforce 545," "password for wireless printer," etc. This turned up a lot of results for PC users, but they were all instructions on how to prevent users on your computer from accessing the printer.
    A few minutes ago I called epson support and they said there are no password options for the Workforce 545.
    Any suggestions on what I might be able to do?
    I've also tried finding solutions for preventing two IPs from communicating with each other on my WLAN, but can't find anything of help there either.
    Any help or insight would be appreciated!

    Practically speaking, there is no way to keep your roommate from using the printer, unless you put it somewhere where he can't get to it. If you could password-protect it in software (which you can't), what would stop him from disconnecting it and connecting it to his computer? The same applies to setting up a separate network for your use.
    The closest you can come to securing the printer is to take it off the network and connect it directly to your computer with a USB cable.

  • Password protect confidential files on a network

    Hey Guys,
    I am starting a new job next week and they have allowed me to use my PB on their PC network. Only problem is I have confidential formulations on my PB and I want to lock and password protect specific folders that have this info and keep it from prying eyes on the network (maybe I'm just paranoid). Is this possible and if so how can I do this?
    Thanks
    Pete

    Hi Pete,
    One method for you to consider is creating a blank image that is password protected and store all your sensitive documents/folders within the image. You can achieve this with Disk Utility (in your Utilities folder). Do the following:
    1. Fire up Disk Utility
    2. From the menubar select File->New->Blank Disk Image...
    3. A New Blank Image window will appear where you can enter a name for the image and select what size you want it to be.
    4. Once you have entered a name and made your selections from the drop down menus click on the Create button.
    5. After a couple of seconds a Authenticate window appears. This is where you enter a Password for accessing the image. Click OK.
    6. The image is created and mounted on to your desktop.
    That's it. Simply copy the files/folders to the mounted image. Whenever you want to access those files simply double click the .dmg file; you will be asked to enter your password, the image will mount and you have access to your files.
    One thing to remember. Never forget your password. If you do forget, you will not be able to access your files.

  • Unlocked, yet password-protected wifi networks render email/apps useless

    Email and apps work great at home where I have a wifi connection on my home wireless router. But when out and about, unlocked (yet password protected) wifi networks (like Optonline) render apps useless. In short, email and apps are trying to connect to the wifi network (since it's unlocked). But in order to actually connect to it, you need to sign in via Safari first.
    Shouldn't the iPhone be "smarter" and know that if a wifi connection is locked OR password protected, it should simply go ahead and use 3G? Otherwise, you need to manually turn off wifi and force the iPhone to use 3G.
    Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions?

    If you have previously connected your iPhone to such a wi-fi network - which you must do first before entering the required password via the Safari webpage before you have internet access via the wi-fi network, your iPhone will automatically connect to the wi-fi network when returning within range of the network.
    If you don't want to use such a particular wi-fi network for internet access, which the provider for the network requires entering a password via a webpage before having internet access via the wi-fi network, remove the wi-fi network from your iPhone and don't join the network when returning within range of the network.
    When within range of the network, which your iPhone will automatically connect to if you have previously connected to the network if wi-fi access is on, select the right facing arrow in a blue circle icon to the right of the network and at the next screen for the wi-fi network settings, select Forget this Network, and don't connect to the wi-fi network when returning within range of the network. If you want to use the wi-fi network for internet access, you must enter your password to access the internet via the wi-fi network, which requires connecting to the wi-fi network first.

  • Password protecting a networked printer

    Hello, here's the situation. My family has a networked printer (Brother 402cn) that's shared via a linksys 802.11g router with three computers (iMac G5, PB and Toshiba). The iMac is the main computer and I would like to password protect the printer so that one needs to input a password to be able to print from the iMac. How would I go about doing this?
    Thanks for your time,
    Eric
    PowerBook 12-inch 867   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Unless password protection is a feature built into the printer driver, which I assume is not the case and for which you should be talking to Brother anyway, the only reliable way to do this is to:
    1 get a network operating system, such as AppleShareIP, OS X Server, Novell, or one of the Windows servers
    2 install the NOS on one computer; note that ASIP is going to require a Mac capable of booting OS 9, OS X Server is going to require a Mac capable of booting OS X, and the Novell and Windows servers will require machines capable of booting Windows.
    3 plug the printer directly into the computer running the NOS.
    4 set up and configure the print server software in the NOS. In particular, enable the password provisions.
    5 put the NOS onto the network.
    This is a non-trivial task. It is also a non-cheap task. Normally network printers on small home networks are set up so that anyone can print to them at any time. I have a Brother laser on my home net; when I don't want anyone to print to it, I either remove the paper (it can't print if there's no paper to print to... ) or simply unplug the power.
    May I ask why you need to password-protect the printer? Even though I have a server installed, I'd not go to all the trouble of setting up passwords for the printer. Things could get very sticky if She Who Must Be Obeyed ever found out that she was locked out of the printer...

  • Password protect a USB printer?

    I'm trying to figure out how to password protect a USB laser printer that is shared between two 10.4.x G5s. I don't mind altering the cupsd.conf file, I just need some clear directions. I looked at the CUPS documentation online, but found it a little less "user-friendly" than I'd like.
    What I want to accomplish is that a password is required to print from either Mac, and, if possible, that the password is different than the user's login. I'd also welcome the recommendation of any third-party software that can do this.
    Thanks.

    The first flash drive I ever bought was a Lexar 128mb and there was software that came installed on it to allow for password locking of the drive.
    They don't have it for download anymore, and it didn't work for anything but a Lexar drive anyway.
    There are several companies that make "universal" security programs for flash drives both Win and Mac.
    Google "Password Protection for flash drives" and you'll be treated to a host of results. Your best bet may be here: http://www.rohos.com/free-encryption/
