Job Storage
Job storage stores print jobs either temporarily or permanently, or in virtual
mailboxes, as you click an appropriate radio button on the printer driver
when printing from a computer.
Virtual Mailbox
Virtual mailbox is part of Job Storage, which stores print jobs on the hard
disk without printing. It enables you to retrieve jobs later from the operation
panel.
Each mailbox may be used by an individual who desires to share the
printer in this mode. By default, each mailbox is numbered from ‘Tray 001,’
‘Tray 002,’ ... etc. To ‘post’ a job in one of these mailboxes, you assign a
numbered or named mailbox on the printer driver when printing.
To retrieve the stored job for printing, refer to Retrieving Jobs from Virtual
Mailbox (VMB) on page 2-29.
NOTE: The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.
