The job currently being printed has a pointing hand icon, jobs already printed have a check mark,
canceled jobs have crosses, processing jobs have a clock and jobs on hold have a warning.
Prioritize a job in the queue
To make any job in the queue the next one to be printed, select it and choose Reprint (in the
Embedded Web Server) or Move to front (in the front panel).
If nesting is turned on, the prioritized job may still be nested with others. If you really want this job to
be printed next, and on its own on the roll, first turn nesting off and then move it to the front of the
queue as described above.
Delete a job from the queue
Under normal circumstances, there is no need to delete a job from the queue after printing it, as it is
removed from the queue as more files are sent. However, if you have sent a file in error, and want to
avoid any chance of it being reprinted, you can simply delete it, by selecting it and choosing Delete
(in the Embedded Web Server or in the front panel).
In the same way, you can delete a job that has not been printed yet.
If the job is currently being printed (Status = printing in the Embedded Web Server, or it is the first
job in the queue in the front panel), and you want both to cancel the job and to delete it, first click the
Cancel icon in the Embedded Web Server, or press the Cancel key on the front panel, and then
delete it from the queue.
Reprint or copy a job in the queue
To reprint or make extra copies of any job in the queue, select the job in the Embedded Web Server
and click the Reprint icon, then specify the number of copies you want. The job is moved to the top of
the queue. To make more than one print of a non-printed job in the queue from the front panel, select
the job and choose Copies, then specify the number of copies required and press the Select key.
This overrides any value set by your software.
NOTE: If Rotate was On when you sent the file, every copy is rotated.
You can reprint an already-printed job from the front panel. Select the Job Queue menu icon ,
then select the job from the queue, then select Reprint.
NOTE: You cannot use this method for PCL3 jobs. To reprint old jobs that are PCL3, you may be
able to use your operating system's printer spooler, if you have already set the spooler to save old
jobs. This facility depends on your operating system.
Job status messages
These are the possible job status messages, approximately in the order in which they may be seen:
● Receiving: the printer is receiving the job from the computer
●
Waiting to process: the job has been received by the printer and is waiting to be rendered (for
jobs submitted through the Embedded Web Server only)
●
Processing: the printer is parsing and rendering the job
●
Preparing to print: the printer is performing writing system checks before printing the job
●
Waiting to print: the job is waiting for the print engine to become free to proceed with printing
