• Be aware that preprinting, perforation, and creasing may significantly affect the print quality and cause jams or
other paper handling problems.
• Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the card stock can withstand temperatures up to 230°C (446°F)
without releasing hazardous emissions.
• Do not use preprinted card stock manufactured with chemicals that may contaminate the printer. Preprinting
introduces semi-liquid and volatile components into the printer.
• Use grain short card stock when possible.
Printing confidential and other held jobs
Holding jobs in the printer
When sending a job to the printer, you can specify that you want the printer to hold the job in memory until you
start the job from the printer control panel. All print jobs that can be initiated by the user at the printer are called
held jobs.
Note: Confidential, Verify, Reserve, and Repeat print jobs may be deleted if the printer requires extra memory to
process additional held jobs.
Job type Description
Confidential When you send a Confidential print job to the printer, you must create a PIN
from the computer. The PIN must be four digits using the numbers 0–9. The
job is held in printer memory until you enter the PIN from the printer control
panel and choose to print or delete the job.
Verify When you send a Verify print job, the printer prints one copy and holds the
remaining copies in printer memory. Verify lets you examine the first copy
to see if it is satisfactory before printing the remaining copies. Once all copies
are printed, the job is automatically deleted from printer memory.
Reserve When you send a Reserve print job, the printer does not print the job
immediately. It stores the job in memory so you can print the job later. The
job is held in memory until you delete it from the Held Jobs menu.
Repeat When you send a Repeat print job, the printer prints all requested copies of
the job and stores the job in memory so you can print additional copies later.
You can print additional copies as long as the job remains stored in memory.
Other types of held jobs include:
• Profiles from various sources including Lexmark Document Solutions Suite (LDSS)
• Forms from a kiosk
• Bookmarks
• Jobs not printed, which are called parked jobs
