User accounts

The basic account is a user account. This type of account allows valid users to print to monitored devices, and enables print tracking. Each user who prints to one or more monitored devices, or who login to a control terminal to use copy, scan, or fax functions, must have an Equitrac printing account. See Create user accounts.

Users can be assigned to act as a delegate to release another user’s print jobs. For example, an assistant needs to release a manager's print jobs from a device, therefore the assistant is assigned to the manager’s account as a delegate. The manager (delegator) sends a job for printing, and the assistant (delegate user) logs in to the device with their own user credentials to release the job via Print-to-Me. The delegate is presented with a list of their documents, followed by a list of the delegator’s documents. A delegator may have multiple delegates, and a delegate may be assigned to multiple delegators. See Assigning Delegates to Users.
