Systems and methods are provided for pre-authorizing print jobs. The system detects that a printer has entered a secure printing mode that prevents incoming print jobs from printing until credentials have been entered at a console of the printer. The system also receives a print job, receives credentials associated with the print job that identify a user, and determines from the credentials that the user is authorized to use the printer. Additionally, the system is able to transmit the print job to the printer along with a bypass instruction directing the printer to disregard the secure printing mode for this print job.
