Virtual Mail Box (VMB)
The Virtual Mail Box (VMB) function is a mail box function for the printer which does not require a physical mail box to be attached to the printer. The virtual mail box function can be used when RAM DISK mode is On or when an optional hard disk unit is installed on the printer. This manual describes how to use the virtual mail box with a RAM DISK.
With a virtual mail box, unlike a physical mailbox, data sent from the computer is stored in the RAM DISK as rasterized data. This stored data accumulates in a numbered virtual output tray. When it is time to actually print the data, it is printed by specifying the virtual output tray number where the data is stored using the printer's control panel or an optional barcode reader.
Note______________________________________________________________________
If all the data in a virtual output tray is printed, all data in that tray will be deleted. If printing is halted by pressing the CANCEL key during printing, data in that tray will not be deleted. Data is not deleted unless all data in the virtual output tray is printed.
·Locked mailbox
Allowing a password to be set for the virtual output tray, this feature makes the printout of confidential documents easy.
·Multilevel mailbox
Supporting up to 255 virtual output trays, mail boxes can be allocated at the individual level rather than by the user's job title or group.
·Large capacity mailbox
There is no limit on the size per virtual output tray. Since the only limit is on the total size of all trays, all of the RAM DISK can be used.
