:

The job currently being printed has a check mark, canceled jobs have crosses, processing jobs have a
clock, and jobs on hold have a warning.

Prioritize a job in the queue

To make any job in the queue the next one to be printed, select it and choose Reprint (in the Embedded
Web Server) or Move to front (in the front panel).

If nesting is turned on, the prioritized job may still be nested with others. If you really want this job to be
printed next, and on its own on the roll, first turn nesting off and then move it to the front of the queue as
described above.

Delete a job from the queue

Under normal circumstances, there is no need to delete a job from the queue after printing it, as it is
removed from the queue as more files are sent. However, if you have sent a file in error, and want to
avoid any chance of it being reprinted, you can simply delete it, by selecting it and choosing Delete (in
the Embedded Web Server or in the front panel).

In the same way, you can delete a job that has not been printed yet.

If the job is currently being printed (Status = printing in the Web server, or its queue position is 0 in the
front panel), and you want both to cancel the job and to delete it, first click the Cancel icon in the Web
server, or press the

Cancel

key on the front panel, and then delete it from the queue.

Reprint or copy a job in the queue

To reprint or make extra copies of any job in the queue, select the job in the Embedded Web Server and
click the Reprint icon, then specify the number of copies you want. The job is moved to the top of the
queue. To make more than one print of a non-printed job in the queue from the front panel, select the job
and choose Copies, then specify the number of copies required and press the

Select

key. This overrides

any value set by your software.

NOTE:

If Rotate was On when you sent the file, every copy is rotated.

You can reprint an already-printed job from the front panel. Select the Job Queue menu icon

, then

select the job from the queue, then select Reprint.

NOTE:

You cannot use this method for PCL3 jobs. To reprint old jobs that are PCL3, you may be

able to use your operating system's printer spooler, if you have already set the spooler to save old
jobs. This facility depends on your operating system.

Job status messages

These are the possible job status messages, approximately in the order in which they may be seen:

Receiving: the printer is receiving the job from the computer

Waiting to process: the job has been received by the printer and is waiting to be rendered (for
jobs submitted through the Embedded Web Server only)

Processing: the printer is parsing and rendering the job

Preparing to print: the printer is performing writing system checks before printing the job
