Ricoh 3045 appendix Printing a Sample Print File

Other Print Operations

Sample Print

Use this function to print only the first set of a multiple-set print job. After you have checked the result, remain- ing sets can be printed or canceled us- ing the machine's control panel. This can reduce misprints due to mistakes in content or settings.

Limitation

❒If the first set of the Sample Print files is not as you expected and you do not want to print remaining sets, delete the Sample Print file using the display panel. If you print the remaining sets of the Sample Print file, the job in the ma- chine is deleted automatically.

❒A Sample Print file cannot be stored if:

4• the total number of Sample Print, Locked Print, Hold Print, and Stored Print files in the machine is over 100. (The maximum number varies depending on the volume of data in files.)

•the file contains over 1,000 pages.

•sent or stored files in the machine contain over 9,000 pages in total.

Note

❒If a Sample Print file has not been stored properly, check the error log on the control panel (see p.104 “Checking the Error Log”).

❒Even after you turn off the ma- chine, stored documents in the ma- chine remain. However, the [Auto Delete Temporary Print Jobs] or [Auto Delete Stored Print Jobs] settings are applied first (see p.128 “System”).

❒If the application has a collate op- tion, make sure it is not selected before sending a print job. By de- fault, Sample Print jobs are auto- matically collated by the printer driver. If a collate option is select-

ed from the application's [Print] di- a l o g b o x , m o r e p r i n t s t h a n intended may be produced.
