Troubleshooting problems with saving jobs
A save problem means that a job is submitted from a client with
Save designated, but the job is not saved.
• Problem: The job has a status of “Save Completed,” but
nothing is saved.
1. Ensure that the banner and error pages are enabled.
2. Submit the job for printing.
3. If only the banner page prints and the job shows a status

4. If possible, submit the job to a draft printer. If the job prints

• Problem: The job has a status of “Save Completed with

1. Ensure that the banner and error pages are enabled.

successfully, contact the customer support center.

Create the variable data file by using the Adobe driver.

software tries to recover to a page boundary. If this recovery is

after a crash. The recovered page may be offset from the rest of
