Monitoring and controlling print requests without desktop printers

If you don’t have desktop printers, you must use the PrintMonitor program to

monitor and control background printing.

1While your document is printing, choose PrintMonitor from the Application menu at the

far right of the menu bar.

2In the PrintMonitor dialog box, review the status of documents that are printing (and

make any changes you want).

You can remove a document that is waiting to print by clicking its name, then

clicking the Remove FromList button that appears.

3When you finish, click the PrintMonitor close box.
