A system and method is provided for creating and administering a guest user's document processing operations, such as printing, on a host company network sharing the same cloud print service as the guest's company network. The host network administrator generates a list of companies that are pre-approved for users from a guest company. The guest user logs into the host network and views a list of pre-approved companies. The user selects one or more approved companies for which they are already approved. The user selects a PIN which is then associated with their information, approved companies and guest company. The user then submits their job to the cloud print service for release by a host company MFP. The user logs into a selected host company MFP with their PIN and a listing of any related, pending job is displayed. The user may select one or more jobs for release and printing. The PIN may be revoked by the host administrator, timeout or expire when a selected number of printouts has been made.
