A system and method for completing document processing operations between a user device and a document processing device such as multifunction peripheral includes capturing a user gesture at the user device. This gesture is digitized and associated with one or more electronic documents, one or more targeted multifunction peripherals and instructions for processing of the document. This information is communicated to the document processing device where a user inputs a second gesture which is digitized and compared to the first gesture. Sufficient coincidence allows for the document processing operation to proceed.
