the barcode from the original document or from a List of Code Jobs. For details on this list, see Printing a List of Code Jobs on page 3-29.

Job storage requires a hard disk installed in the printer. However, printing barcoded job IDs on documents is possible using the RAM disk feature of the printer. On how to use the RAM disk, see Section 3.9.1 Setting up the RAM Disk on page 3-69.

Virtual Mailbox

Virtual mailbox is part of Job Storage, which stores print jobs on the hard disk without printing. It enables you to retrieve jobs later from the operator panel, the KM-NET Printer Disk Manager utility (in the CD-ROM), or the barcode reader.

Each mailbox may be used by an individual who desires to share the printer in this mode. By default, each mailbox is numbered from ‘Tray 001,’ ‘Tray 002,’ ... etc. To ‘post’ a job in one of these mailboxes, you assign a numbered or named mailbox on the printer driver when printing.

To retrieve the stored job for printing, see Retrieving Jobs from Virtual Mailbox (VMB) on page 3-30.

The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 5c emulation only.

Note

3.4.1Using Quick Copy

This mode enables you to print the requested number of copies of a job, simultaneously storing the job on the hard disk. When additional copies are required, you can reprint the required number of copies from the printer operator panel. To print a job as a quick copy job, see Chapter 4 Printer Drivers and Utilities.

The default number of print jobs that can be stored on the hard disk is 32. This value can be increased to up to 50 from the e-MPS Configuration menu. For details, see Section 3.4.7 Changing e-MPS Configuration on page 3-32. When the number of jobs reaches the limit, the oldest job will be overwritten by the new one.

When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
