Hold Print
Use this function to temporarily hold a file in the machine, and print it from the
computer or the machine's control panel later.
Important
❒ A Hold Print file cannot be stored if:
• the total number of Sample Print, Locked Print, Hold Print, and Stored
Print files in the machine is over 100. (The maximum number varies de-
pending on the volume of data in files.)
• the file contains over 1,000 pages.
• sent or stored files in the machine contain over 9,000 pages in total.
Note
❒ If a Hold Print file has not been stored properly, check the error log on the dis-
play panel.
❒ Even after you turn off the machine, stored documents in the machine re-
main. However, the [Auto Delete Temporary Print Jobs] or [Auto Delete Stored Print
Jobs] settings are applied first.
❒ If the application has a collate option, make sure it is not selected before send-
ing a print job. By default, Hold Print jobs are automatically collated by the
printer driver. If a collate option is selected from the application's Print dialog
box, more prints than intended may be produced.
Reference
For details about the error log on the display panel, see p.109 “Checking the
Error Log”.
For details about the [Auto Delete Temporary Print Jobs] and [Auto Delete Stored
Print Jobs], see “Printer Features”, General Settings Guide.
