E. PROBLEMS DURING A BACKGROUND PRINT

Errors that are detected during a background print must be

reported. The Backgrounder, however, cannot simply present a

dialog box as soon as the error occurs, since the dialog could

obscure work that is being done in the foreground. Error

dialogs appear immediately, however, if the Backgrounder is in

the foreground when the error is detected.
If operating in the background, Backgrounder stops processing

until it is brought to the front. When Backgrounder detects an

error, it beeps and visually indicates an error condition. This

error condition is signaled by alternately flashing between the

Application menu and the Backgrounder icon. A small

diamond symbol is also displayed next to the Backgrounder

icon within the Application menu.
Complete and save any work in the foreground application

before bringing the Backgrounder to the front. Once

Backgrounder is in the foreground, the error dialog displays

and processing continues or is canceled. Some errors force

Backgrounder to stop processing all jobs.
