STARTING AND STOPPING THE SYSTEM

Starting a print job

Once the channel or communications system is enabled, the paper is loaded, trays are selected, and the printer is ready, the IPS system can receive print jobs. The host application can also release any queued jobs for printing.

Caution: Be sure the IPS main window is displayed while printing from the host. Otherwise, the results are unpredictable.

Follow these steps to start printing a job that has been sent from the host:

1.Verify that the system is set up as required for the print job.

2.Make any changes necessary to the system configuration using the procedures contained in this chapter.

Jobs are printed in the order they are sent.

Note: If you are printing samples, you must exit the Sample

Printing window before you can print from the host.

Stopping the printer

At times, you may need to stop the printer while it is printing—for example, to check output or cancel a job. In addition to stopping a print job from the application at the host, you can stop printing in three ways:

Pressing the red Stop button on the printer control console. This is the preferred method and stops the printing immediately.

Clicking the red Stop button on the IPS main window.

The printer continues to print the pages that remain in the buffer.

Caution: If you select Offline during a duplex printing job, you might interrupt the job just after the front side of a duplex sheet is printed. Should this occur, the printer finishes with a blank reverse side. After the printing resumes, the corresponding back of the duplex page prints as a simplex sheet.

Resuming printing

You must always resume printing an interrupted job in the same way you stopped it:

If you pressed the red Stop button on the printer control console, you must use the Continue button on the printer control console.

If you clicked the red Stop button on the IPS main window, you must click the green Continue button on the IPS main window.
