Register email address to Pharos Secure Release

Before you can activate Pharos Secure Release, you must first register your email address.

You will receive an email from your IT admin with instructions on how to register your email account to Pharos Secure Release. The registration process includes entering your email address, verifying your email address, and setting a PIN code associated with your email address.

  1. To launch the Setup Guide:
  • On Windows, open the Setup Guide or search for Pharos Secure Release Setup Guide on the Start Menu.
  • On macOS, press ⌘-Space to open Spotlight then search for Pharos Secure Release Setup Guide.

Note: On Windows, you can also launch the Pharos Secure Release Setup Guide from the email invitation you received. The invitation contains a link to the Setup Guide. It is important for you to open the email from the workstation where their Print Scout is installed.

2. On the Pharos Secure Release Setup Guide, enter a valid email address to register and then click Verify. This ensures that the email address belongs to you.

The Verify email address screen appears.

Check your email and then follow the instructions in the email to complete email verification.

To verify email address, you can choose from either of the following options:

  • Option 1: Click the Confirm Email Address link within the email.

Note: Make sure to click the link on the machine that you used to launch the Setup Guide. If you click the link on a different machine or a web browser, you will get the error message “The address wasn’t understood”.

  • Option 2: Enter a verification code. In the Pharos Secure Release Setup Guide, select Enter verification code instead and enter the code shown on the email.

Note: The link and the verification code are valid for one hour only.

3. After your email address is successfully verified, the Set PIN dialog appears. Enter a 4-digit PIN code. You can use this PIN code with your registered email address to release documents from a printer.

You’ve registered your email address to Pharos Secure Release, the next step is to activate your preferred release method.
