Other Print Operations

Stored Print

Use this function to store a file in the machine, and then print it from the computer or the machine's control panel later.

Jobs are not deleted after they are printed, so the same job need not be resent in order to print multiple copies.

Important

❒A Stored Print file cannot be stored if:

• the total number of Sample Print, Locked Print, Hold Print, and Stored

3 Print files in the machine is over 100. (The maximum number varies depending on the volume of data in files.)

•the file contains over 2,000 pages.

•sent or stored files in the machine contain over 15,000 pages in total.

Note

❒If a Stored Print file has not been stored properly, check the error log on the control panel (see p.108 “Checking the Error Log”).

❒Even after you turn off the machine, stored documents remain. However, the

[Auto Delete Temporary Print Jobs] or [Auto Delete Stored Print Jobs] settings are applied first (see “Printer Features”, General Settings Guide).

❒If the application has a collate option, make sure it is not selected before send- ing a print job. By default, Stored Print jobs are automatically collated by the printer driver. If a collate option is selected from the application's Print dialog box, more prints than intended may be produced.
