Printing: Beyond the Basics 5

Previewing with Check Print

This feature is available only with the printer’s Extended Features configuration. When sending a multiple-page file to the printer through the driver, you can select Check Print to preview the first page of the job and determine if the print is to your liking before proceeding with the remainder of the job. This is especially useful when printing a large job.

The ability to access Check Print from the driver is enabled and disabled in the printer’s front panel. You can also set the timeout in the front panel (the timeout is the amount of time the printer will wait after sending the first page of a file, before it continues with the remainder of the job).

The factory default for Check Print is disabled; the default timeout is

5 minutes. Follow these instructions to enable Check Print in the front panel and select the option in the printer driver:

1.While the Ready message is displayed in the front panel, press the Menu button. Use the left arrow (<---) or right arrow (---)>buttons to scroll through the selections until the following message appears:
