Techniques are provided for processing scheduled and secured print requests. In one embodiment, a printing device receives a notification form a network service that a request to print an electronic document has been received. The printing device determines whether the request indicates secure printing of the electronic document. In response to determining that the request indicates secure printing of the electronic document, the printing device prompts, through a user interface, a user for a release code. In response to receiving the release code, the printing device sends the release code to the network service. The printing device receives, from the network service, access data that allows for retrieval of the electronic document. The printing device downloads the electronic document based on the access data received from the network service and generates print data for the electronic document.
