application (interpreting mouse clicks, key presses, etc.). When the priority is set to High, Backgrounder processes the image faster, but the foreground application may become less responsive. With the priority set to Low, Backgrounder takes longer to process the image, yet the responsiveness of the other applications is improved.

Jobs menu

All commands in the Jobs menu act on the currently selected job.

Hold: Prevents an individual job from being processed. Jobs that are Òon holdÓ are displayed in italic font at the bottom of the queue. Placing a job on hold is useful if you wish to create a print job at present, yet save its processing until later.

If Hold is selected on the job currently processing, the job is canceled before it is placed on hold. Canceling the current job can take some time, since the printer software may be performing a lengthy task that cannot be interrupted.

Remove Hold: Moves the job from the hold section of the list and places it at the bottom of the waiting queue.

Delete: Permanently removes the selected print job. The corresponding spool file is deleted from the Spool Folder. Use this command only when you are sure that you do not wish to process the job. Note that the job currently processing cannot be deleted (this happens automatically when it is printed successfully).

Move Job Up and Move Job Down: Adjusts the position of the selected job in the queue, allowing you to prioritize jobs. The queue is processed in top-to-bottom order.

E. PROBLEMS DURING A BACKGROUND PRINT

Errors that are detected during a background print must be reported. The Backgrounder, however, cannot simply present a dialog box as soon as the error occurs, since the dialog could obscure work that is being done in the foreground. Error dialogs appear immediately, however, if the Backgrounder is in the foreground when the error is detected.

If operating in the background, Backgrounder stops processing until it is brought to the front. When Backgrounder detects an error, it beeps and visually indicates an error condition. This error condition is signaled by alternately flashing between the Application menu and the Backgrounder icon. A small diamond symbol is also displayed next to the Backgrounder icon within the Application menu.

Complete and save any work in the foreground application before bringing the Backgrounder to the front. Once Backgrounder is in the foreground, the error dialog displays and processing continues or is canceled. Some errors force Backgrounder to stop processing all jobs.
