Abstract: One or more collator/sorter bins at a copier output are locked to the user by means of a badge reader or the like. The user enters identification data into the copier to enable copier operation. Machine controls precede copy run by latching the document platen cover and displaying user-entered identification data in a manner so that it is recorded on the first copy which is delivered to the locked collator/sorter bin or bins. The number of copies selected by the user are then processed and delivered to user-accessible bins. The platen cover is thereafter unlatched to allow user recovery of the original document.
