Managing Print Jobs on a
Macintosh
Your Macintosh printer software includes two print job management utilities: Monitor3 and Status Monitor. It also includes a Configuration utility for setting up print monitoring options.
◗If you’re using background printing, Monitor3 starts automatically when you send a job to the printer. It handles printing while you continue to work on your Macintosh, lets you track documents that are waiting to be printed, and lets you set printing priorities for waiting print jobs.
