• a print engine;
• and
• a computer-readable medium containing programming instructions that are configured to instruct the processor to:
• receive a print request from a requesting entity, wherein the print request comprises a request to print digital content that is associated with an NFT,
• access a distributed digital ledger that is associated with the NFT to identify a current owner of the NFT,
• in response to determining that the current owner of the NFT is the requesting entity, generate a print job that comprises a set of instructions to cause the print engine to print the digital content that is associated with the NFT along with a unique authentication code, and
• use the print engine to print the digital content with the unique identification code.

A method of generating a secure printed copy of content associated with a non-fungible token (NFT), the method comprising, by a processor:

• receiving a print request from a requesting entity, wherein the print request comprises a request to print digital content that is associated with an NFT;
