Job Box
Job box implements the Job Retention function and Job Storage function
that are available from the printer driver. The settings are specified from
the printer driver. Refer to KX Printer Driver User Guide for the driver
settings.
In either job mode, when printing a document, the print data is
transferred from the computer to the printer then stored on the printer’s
hard disk. Since copies of the document are printed using the stored
data, printing is performed faster with less computer spooling time and
less network traffic.
Job Retention
Job Retention has four modes as summarized below. These modes are
selected from the printer driver through the application software:
IMPORTANT To use the Job Box, an optional hard disk must be
installed in the printer.
The RAM disk may also be used in the Proof-and-Hold and Private
Print modes.
