Adding Jobs to the Print Monitor

The Jobs Management area of RIP Software allows you to add jobs to the Print Monitor.

To Add a Job

2.Select the job you would like to add then click on Open.

3.To send a job to the printer, select the job from the Print Monitor’s queue and then choose Print from the File menu.

Deleting Jobs from the Print Monitor

A job may be deleted from the job list before or after it is cut or printed.

To Delete a Job

1.Select the job or jobs that you want to delete by selecting them in the Print Monitor’s queue.

2.From the File menu choose Delete.

Pausing and Resuming Printing

When printing a job, the software begins RIPing the file. RIP, which stands for Raster Image Processor, is a process that converts the selected file into a series of dots that are used to reproduce the file on the selected media. RIPing involves a complex algorithmic process that requires a significant portion of your computer’s processing capacity. Larger files, in terms of MB, take longer to RIP than smaller files. The nature of the RIP process makes it impossible to pause and restart. For this reason, the Pause button is dimmed to prevent you from pausing a job during the RIP process. However, once a job is done RIPing and has begun printing, you can use the Pause button to stop and restart the printing process as often as desired.

To Pause or Resume a Job

1.Select the job to pause by selecting it in RIP Software’s Print Monitor window.

2.Click the Pause icon.

3.Click the Pause button again (Resume) to resume the printing process.

Aborting a Print Job

Although a job cannot be paused during the RIP process, the job can be aborted. After aborting a job, all RIP’ed information is lost and the process must start again.

To Abort a Print Job

1.Select the job to abort by selecting it in RIP Software’s Print Monitor window.

2.From the File menu choose Abort or click the icon Abort Job

Printing Directly from an Application

Once you have specified setup properties, you can print directly from your application without adjusting any values from the Print Monitor menus.

Most applications have Page setup and Print Command options within the File Menu. Make sure you select the correct printer setup that you have installed. Please consult your DTP application for more details on the print command.
