Re: Private Pickup?

I've worked at two universities where print jobs need to be unlocked by PIN or card. I loved it! Wandering up to the printer, tapping my staff card, waiting a few seconds while it printed, taking it away. No wading though cubic metres of print dating back to the dinosaurs, no finding my job has been unceremoniously dumped to one side in random order in the minute it took to click "Print" and then get to the printer, no getting to the printer to find someone printing off copies of three chapters of weighty law books for their 40 students...
