Chapter 3 Using the Operator Panel
Job storage stores print jobs either temporarily or perma- nently, or in virtual mailboxes, as you click an appropriate radio button on the printer driver when printing from a computer.
Virtual MailboxVirtual 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.
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
NOTE
The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.
Using Quick CopyThis 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 Printer Driver Guide.
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 Changing
When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
