Previewing with Check Print

Requirements

Plus Features (Option FP, order number Z740FP)

Enable the feature in the printer’s front panel

When printing multiple pages through the driver (either multiple copies of a single page or a multiple-page file), select Check Print to preview the first page of the job before proceeding with the remainder of the job; this feature is useful when printing a large job.

Access to 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 (timeout is the amount of time the printer waits 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, reset the default timeout, and select the option in the printer driver.
