NOTE
A secured document is automatically deleted after its valid period has elapsed. If you want to change the valid period, see The Document Printed from a Computer Is Not on the Machine (Secure Print).
If you leave secured documents unprinted, they take up memory and might prevent ordinary printing. It is recommended to print secured documents soon.
You can check the amount of memory secured documents occupy.
