Abstract
Examples disclosed herein relate to displaying, in a user interface, a list of available print jobs, wherein at least one of the available print jobs comprising a secured print job is displayed as a placeholder entry instead of an identifying entry, receiving a selection of the placeholder entry requesting an authentication for the secured print job, and displaying the identifying entry of the secured print job upon verification of the authentication.
Claims20
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a processor to:
- provide a user interface element for listing available print jobs;
- determine whether at least one available print job comprises a secured print job;
- in response to determining that the at least one available print job comprises the secured print job, display a placeholder list entry instead of an identifying detail about the at least one available print job, wherein the placeholder list entry specifies a submitting user;
- and
- display the identifying detail about the at least one available print job upon verification of a requested authentication for the secured print job, wherein the machine-readable instructions further cause the processor to compare a received authentication item to a verified authentication item received at a time the at least one available print job was received or stored.
A method comprising:
- displaying, in a user interface, a list of available print jobs, wherein at least one of the available print jobs comprising a first secured print job is displayed as a placeholder entry instead of an identifying entry, and wherein the placeholder entry specifies a submitting user;
- receiving a selection of the placeholder entry;
- requesting an authentication for the first secured print job;
- and
- displaying the identifying entry of the first secured print job upon verification of the authentication, including comparing a received authentication item to a verified authentication item received at a time the first secured print job was received or stored.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a control panel to:
- display a list of available print jobs, wherein at least one of the available print jobs comprising a secured print job is displayed as a placeholder entry instead of an identifying entry, wherein the placeholder entry specifies a submitting user,
- receive a selection of the placeholder entry, and
- display a request for an authentication for the secured print job;
- an authentication engine to:
- determine whether a received authentication is verified for the selected placeholder entry;
- and
- in response to determining that the received authentication is verified for the selected placeholder entry, authorize the control panel to display the identifying entry in place of the placeholder entry, including comparing a received authentication item to a verified authentication item received at the time the secured print job was received or stored.
