Abstract
A print system includes a print device and a kiosk device. The kiosk device includes a display device, and a processor. The processor is configured to launch a first application that causes the display device to output a user interface to a remote service from which a user may obtain a document to print via the print device. The user interface includes user interaction fields that, when actuated, will initiate actions that are unrelated to operation of the print device. The processor is further configured to launch a second application that causes the display device to generate and output a graphical overlay that is at least in part displayed over one or more of the user interaction fields to prevent the user from actuating the user interaction fields while presenting a user interaction field that permits the user to cause the print device to print a document.
