Spool Printing

Spool Printing

Spool Printing allows print jobs transferred from a computer to be temporarily stored, and then prints them after they are transferred. This shortens printing time as it maximizes printer efficiency.

Important

During Spool Printing, the hard disk is accessed and the Data In indicator blinks. Turning off the computer or machine during Spool Printing can dam-

age the hard disk. Also, if the computer or machine is turned off during Spool Printing, spooled jobs will be deleted. Therefore, do not turn the power to the 3 computer or machine off during Spool Printing.

If data is sent to the machine using other protocols besides diprint, lpr, ipp, smb (TCP/IP (IPv6)), and sftp, Spool Printing cannot be performed.

Up to a maximum of 150 jobs at once can be spool printed.

This function is available only on machines that have Function Upgrade Op- tion type C1500 installed.

Setting Spool Printing

Spool Printing can be set using telnet or Web Image Monitor.

Using Web Image Monitor

See Network Guide or Help for more information.

Using telnet

Viewing/Deleting spool jobs in Web Image Monitor

Start Web Image Monitor and enter the machine's IP address in the address bar. This displays the top page.

For more information, see Network Guide.

Note

Printing the first page with Spool Printing will be slow.

The computer requires less print processing time when large amounts of data are spooled.

Stored spool jobs can be viewed or deleted using Web Image Monitor.

The list of spool jobs cannot be viewed from the machine's control panel.
