F.Problems During a Background Print

on hold is useful if you wish to create a print job at present, yet save its processing until later.

If Hold is selected on the job currently processing, the job is canceled before it is placed on hold. Canceling the current job can take some time, since the printer software may be performing a lengthy task that cannot be interrupted.

Remove Hold: Moves the job from the hold section of the list and places it at the bottom of the waiting queue.

Delete: Permanently removes the selected print job. The corresponding spool file is deleted from the Spool Folder. Use this command only when you are sure that you do not wish to process the job. Note that the job currently processing cannot be deleted (this happens automatically when it is printed successfully).

Move Job Up and Move Job Down: Adjusts the position of the selected job in the queue, allowing you to prioritize jobs. The queue is processed in top-to-bottom order.

Errors that are detected during a background print must be reported. The FARGO 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 program. Error dialogs appear immediately if the FARGO 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 FARGO Backgrounder icon within the Application menu.

Complete and save any work in the foreground application before bringing the FARGO 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.
