I'm going to hit Ricoh up about that one - seems like something that should be in the PPD file. -Nick Nick for printer queue holding managed by cups so can be deployed on any printer. have a look at the following cups options Holding Jobs for Later Printing The -o job-hold-until=when option tells CUPS to delay printing until the "when" time, which can be one of the following: * -o job-hold-until=indefinite; print only after released by the user or an administrator * -o job-hold-until=day-time; print from 6am to 6pm local time * -o job-hold-until=night; print from 6pm to 6am local time * -o job-hold-until=second-shift; print from 4pm to 12am local time * -o job-hold-until=third-shift; print from 12am to 8am local time * -o job-hold-until=weekend; print on Saturday or Sunday * -o job-hold-until=HH:MM; print at the specified UTC time more options http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/options.html users can then login to cups and release their jobs from a web interface. unfortunately am not aware of the document "mailboxes" concept so I am not able to advise on that one.
