suspended documents are printed.

■ About Background Printing

The print processing method that enables you to do other tasks simultaneously while
printing documents is called “Background Printing.” To perform background printing, select
Chooser from the Apple Menu, select a printer driver and set Backgrounding to On.
During background printing, you can display the BJ PrintMonitor to confirm the progress of
printing or to stop the printing.

■ Displaying the BJ PrintMonitor Window

When Backgrounding is set to On, the BJ PrintMonitor starts up automatically when you
print. The BJ PrintMonitor appears in the Application Menu. To verify the print process, click
the BJ PrintMonitor icon in the Application Menu.
