Register a proximity card in the User Portal

Register your proximity card in the User Portal so you can release print jobs by swiping it at any secure printer. You don't need Print Scout to do this.

Note: Proximity card registration in the User Portal is available only if you sign in through OpenID Connect or SAML single sign-on. You can also register your card in the HP Secure Print desktop app. See Register a Card Reader.

Before you begin

  • You're signed in to the User Portal, or have the link from your administrator.
  • Your administrator has turned on card registration for your secure printers.

Steps

  1. Walk up to any secure printer and swipe your card. A document with a one-time registration code is printed. It's titled Card Registration.
  2. On your computer, open the User Portal and sign in.
  3. Click the menu icon (☰) on the right side of the page and select Card Registration.
  4. In the Register a Proximity Card dialog box, enter the registration code shown on the printout.

Your card is now registered. You can release your documents at any secure printer in the organization.
