5. Sample Print/Locked Print

Sample Print

Use this function to print only the first set of a multiple-set print job. The re- maining sets are saved on the option- al hard disk in the printer. The saved job can be printed or canceled from the printer's operation panel.

Limitation

To use this function, optional Printer Hard Disk Type 185 must be installed on the printer.

Note

If the application has a collate op- tion, confirm that it is not selected before sending a print job. By de- fault, sample print jobs are auto- matically collated by the printer driver. If the collate option is se- lected from the application print dialog box, more pages than in- tended may be printed.

You can identify the file you want to print by the User IDs and the time when the job was stored.

The actual number of pages the printer can save depends on the contents of the print images. As an example, the printer can save up to 30 jobs or 2,000 pages. It depends on the data volume.

If the first set of the sample print file is not as you expected and you do not want to print the remaining sets, delete the sample print file us- ing the operation panel. If you print the remaining sets of the sample print file, the job in the printer is deleted automatically.
