Previewing with Check Print
This feature is available only with the printer’s Extended Features
configuration. When sending a multiple-page file to the printer through the
driver, you can select
Check Print
to preview the first page of the job and
determine if the print is to your liking before proceeding with the remainder
of the job. This is especially useful when printing a large job.
The ability to access
Check Print
from the driver is enabled and disabled in
the printer’s front panel. You can also set the timeout in the front panel (the
timeout is the amount of time the printer will wait after sending the first
page of a file, before it continues with the remainder of the job).
The factory default for
Check Print
is disabled; the default timeout is
5 minutes. Follow these instructions to enable
Check Print
in the front panel
and select the option in the printer driver:
