Q 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. If you select
Temporary or Permanent job storage, you can choose to have a
unique number and barcode automatically assigned to each job
as it is stored in the printer. This barcode appears on the printed
document. The barcode reader can be used to reprint the docu-
ment by reading the barcode from the original document or from
a List of Code Jobs. For details on this list, see Printing a List of
Code Jobs on page 3-15.
Job storage requires a hard disk installed in the printer. Howev-
er, printing barcoded job IDs on documents is possible using the
RAM disk feature of the printer. On how to use the RAM disk, see
Operating a RAM Disk on page 3-34.

Q 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 operator panel, the Print Disk Manager utility (in the CD-
ROM), or the barcode reader.
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, see Retrieving Jobs from
Virtual Mailbox (VMB) on page 3-15.
The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.
Using Quick Copy
This mode enables you to print the requested number of copies
of a job, simultaneously storing the job on the hard disk. When
additional copies are required, you can reprint the required
number of copies from the printer operator panel. To print a job
as a quick copy job, see Printer Driver Guide.
The default number of print jobs that can be stored on the hard
disk is 32. This value can be increased to up to 50 from the e-MPS
Configuration menu. For details, see Changing e-MPS Configu-
ration on page 3-16. When the number of jobs reaches the limit,
the oldest job will be overwritten by the new one.
When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
