Employees are concerned about sensitive data being printed on a shared multifunction printer located in a high-traffic hallway. Which of the following should a technician do to address this concern?

The correct answer is A. Set up a PIN for user authentication at the printer. PIN printing (also known as secure printing) ensures that documents are held in a queue until the authorized user enters a PIN directly at the printer. This prevents unauthorized viewing of confidential documents.
