Abstract:
Method(s) and apparatus(es) relate to notification to pick-up a printed document (“document”). In a method, stored are: at least one print image of the document; print metadata; and a user identity. A snap-notify function for a photograph of at least one printed page of the document is to store at least one photo image and associated photo metadata. The photo metadata is compared with data entries in a printer log to obtain a match to the print metadata. The at least one photo image stored relating to the photo metadata matching the print metadata is retrieved. The at least one photo image is compared to the at least one print image. Responsive to determining the at least one photo image matches the at least one print image to at least a threshold percentage, sent from the printer is a confidential notification for the user identity to pick up the document.
