Pull printing is a secure printing method where documents are only released when the authorised user authenticates at the printer. This approach significantly reduces the risk of sensitive documents being left unattended, enhances confidentiality, and supports sustainable workplace practices by reducing unnecessary printing.

Unified Identity integrates with leading pull printing solutions, allowing organisations to streamline access control and centralise management. Users authenticate using their ID card or login credentials, enabling secure release of print jobs. IT administrators can apply policies based on roles or departments—such as restricting colour printing, enforcing duplex mode, or limiting access to confidential documents. The platform also offers full audit trails, helping organisations monitor usage and meet compliance requirements.

By managing pull printing privileges from a central source, organisations can enforce cost-saving strategies like print quotas or cost recovery models. This not only supports governance and accountability but also helps reduce operational costs—especially in large departments or shared environments.
