Managing Print Jobs

Note:

Background monitoring must be turned on to change the Background Monitoring and Status Alert preferences for individual printers in the Monitoring Preferences window. See page 4-5 for instructions.

Note:

Short monitoring intervals may cause some applications to run slower.

Setting Up Monitoring Preferences

You can select the way you want Status Monitor 2 to monitor each printer you use in the Monitoring Preferences window. There are several ways to open the window:

◗Click the printer name in the Installed Printers list to

highlight it and click the icon or select Monitoring Preferences from the Settings menu.

◗Right-click the printer name in the Installed Printers list and select Monitoring Preferences from the drop-down menu.

You see the Monitoring Preferences window:

If you turn on one or more of the Status Alert options, you’ll see the Status Alert dialog box when the selected condition occurs. For example, if you turn on Show when errors occur, the dialog box will appear only if a printing error occurs. If you select all the options, the dialog box will appear whenever you print, encounter an error, or have low ink levels.
