Tray locking system for accepting sheets

1. A system for managing trays for accepting sheets, comprising:

at least one secured output stacking bin operatively configured to conceal secured output sheets;

at least one unsecured output stacking bin; and

at least one processor for implementing data instruction set(s),

wherein, if a security option is selected by a user, and if the at least one secured output stacking bin is not associated with the user, the at least one processor is configured to:

cause generation of a randomly-generated passcode associated with the at least one secured output stacking bin, in response to each electronic input request by the user to produce secured sheets,

provide the randomly-generated passcode to the user, and

cause the at least one output stacking bin to be remain secured until the randomly-generated passcode is provided to the system by the user,

wherein said randomly-generated passcode expires after a predetermined period of time, and

wherein, if the security option is not selected by the user, the processor is configured to cause production of unsecured sheets into the unsecured output stacking bin.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the data instruction set(s) further cause another randomly-generated passcode to be generated with respect to said at least one secured output stacking bin if the passcode is already associated with one or more secured output stacking bin.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the produced sheet is printed paper.

4. The system of claim 1 , comprising an electrostatographic device.

5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a sheet disposal apparatus operationally associated with said at least one secured output stacking bin.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein said randomly-generated passcode is associated with more than one secured output stacking bin.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein said randomly-generated passcode is generated based at least in part on the user's IP address.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein said secured output stacking bin is selected in accordance with the input request with respect to the amount of sheets to be produced and secured.

9. A multi-bin sheet collection system, comprising:

an unsecured stacking bin, wherein, if a security option is not selected by a user, unsecured sheets are produced into the unsecured stacking bin;

at least one secured stacking bin operatively configured to conceal imaged sheets, wherein, if the security option is selected by the user, the imaged sheets are provided in response to entry of a randomly-generated passcode by the user, the randomly-generated passcode being supplied to the user in response to each request by the user to produce a secured sheet output,

wherein said randomly-generated passcode expires after a predetermined period of time; and

a sheet disposal system operatively associated with the at least one secured stacking bin and configured to remove said sheets from said at least one secured stacking bin after passage of the pre-determined period of time and to dispose said sheets in a manner so as to obfuscate the image on the sheets.

10. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein the disposal system comprises a shredder.

11. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein the disposal system disposes of the fixed media by degrading it in whole or in part.

12. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein disposal system is configured to remove said sheets from said secured stacking bin after passage of a period of time provided to a user of the system in which to retrieve their fixed media.

13. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one secured stacking bin operatively configured to secure imaged sheets is an electronically-lockable bin.

14. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one secured stacking bin operatively configured to secure imaged sheets is an mechanically-lockable bin.

15. The multi-bin sheet collection system of claim 9 , wherein the system is operationally coupled to an electrostatographic device.

16. A device responsive to remote electronic input to produce secured sheet output comprising:

at least one processor for implementing a data instruction set,

wherein, if a security option is selected by a user, the at least one processor is configured to cause generation of a random passcode in response to each remote electronic input request by the user to produce a secured sheet output;

provide the random passcode to the user; and

cause one or more sheets to be securely outputted on a imaged sheet production device, in response to entry of the random passcode by the user into a processor associated with said imaged sheet production device,

wherein said random passcode expires after a predetermined period of time, and

wherein, if the security option is not selected by the user, the at least one processor is configured to cause production of one or more unsecured sheets on the imaged sheet production device.

17. The device of claim 16 , wherein the data instruction set further cause another randomly-generated passcode to be generated with respect to the secured output stacking bin if the passcode is already associated with one or more secured output stacking bin.

18. The device of claim 16 , wherein the produced sheet is printed paper.

19. The device of claim 16 , wherein said device is an electrostatographic device.

20. The device of claim 16 , wherein said random passcode is generated based at least in part on the user's IP address.

21. The system of claim 1 , wherein said randomly-generated passcode is generated based at least in part on a submitter's name.

22. The device of claim 16 , wherein said random passcode is generated based at least in part on a submitter's name.
