NOTE

NOTE

Double-clicking on a job in the status window is a shortcut for Get Info.

Quit: Exits the Backgrounder. Note that you cannot quit while a job is being processed (see Stop Processing on the following page). All jobs in the queue are retained and processed when FARGO Backgrounder is next started.

The spool files are stored in the ÒSpool Folder,Ó inside the ÒSystem Folder.Ó If these files are deleted, the corresponding print jobs will be lost, and must be printed again.

Admin menu

Stop Processing: Stops the FARGO Backgrounder from processing any jobs, although it will still receive them and add them to the queue. A dialog box is displayed if Stop Processing is selected while Backgrounder is processing a job, asking when the job should be put on hold. The Backgrounder status box in the lower-left corner of the window indicates that Backgrounder has stopped.

You cannot quit from Backgrounder while it is processing a job. Stop Processing must first be selected to cancel the processing job and stop Backgrounder. When Backgrounder stops, the menu changes to Continue Processing. When selected, the server starts processing the top job in the queue.

Preferences: Presents a dialog box containing options for fine-tuning the FARGO Backgrounder. Background printing priority determines how much time the Mac spends processing the image, and how much time it spends in the foreground application (interpreting mouse clicks, key presses etc.). When the priority is set to High, Backgrounder processes the image faster, but the foreground application may become less responsive. With the priority set to Low, Backgrounder takes longer to process the image, yet the responsiveness of the other applications is improved.

Jobs menu

All commands in the Jobs menu act on the currently selected job.

Hold: Prevents an individual job from being processed. Jobs that are Òon holdÓ are displayed in italic font at the bottom of the queue. Placing a job
