Chapter 3 Using the Operator Panel

Using Proof-and-Hold

When you print multiple copies, this mode first prints one copy so that you can proof it before continuing to print the remaining copies. Since you can proof the printouts before printing the remaining copies, wastage of paper can be reduced.

The printer prints one copy and, at the same time, saves the print job on the hard disk. You can also change the number of copies when resuming printing from the operator panel.

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

Printing Remaining Copies of a Proof and Hold Job

Printing a Proof-and-Hold job on the operator panel is similar to printing a quick copy job. To print remaining copies of a job held in the printer:

Printing a Private Print/Job Retention

In private printing, you can specify that a job is not printed until you release the job from the operator panel. When sending the job from the application software, you can specify a 4- digit access code in the printer driver. The job is released for printing by entering the access code on the operator panel. Thus, this function ensures confidentiality of the print job.

In the job retention mode, access codes are not mandatory, but can be set on the printer driver if printing with the PIN security is required. Then, the access code must be entered on the operator panel to print a stored job. Print data will be stored in the hard disk/RAM disk after printing. See KX Printer Drivers Operation Guide for the driver settings.
