Print hold function

A print job sent to the machine can be held in the machine's memory until the operator initiates printing from the operation panel of the machine. This is called the Print Hold function.

There are four methods for holding print jobs with the Print Hold function.

Note	● The machine can hold a maximum of 100 print hold jobs. If 100 jobs are exceeded or the memory that can be used for print hold
	becomes full, no more print hold jobs will be accepted, an error will appear in the touch panel, or a Notice Page will be printed.
	● Memory allocated to the print hold function can be changed in the key operator programs. (See "MEMORY FOR PRINTER" in the
	key operator's guide.)
