Printing a Proof Print Job on page 94 Notes:

This special job type requires that you have a minimum of 256 MB of additional memory installed in the printer for a minimum total of 512 MB of RAM. For information on your printer configuration and available optional features, see Configurations and Options on page 22.

The printer’s RAM Disk feature must also be enabled for you to use Proof Print. For information on enabling this option, see Enabling Optional Features on page 44.

The Proof Print feature enables you to temporarily store a multiple-copy print job in the printer, print only one set to check the print results and then, if satisfactory, print the remaining copies from the control panel.

Setting Up a Proof Print Job

You set up Proof Print print jobs in the printer driver at your computer. Both the PCL and PostScript drivers can be used for Proof Print. After setup, one copy of the job prints for you to review. Then you can print the rest of the copies or delete them from the printer control panel.

1.From the application you are using to print, open the Print dialog box.

2.Select your Phaser 6140 printer (PostScript or PCL printer driver) and then click the Properties button.

3.In the Paper/Output tab of the printer driver Properties dialog box, do the following:

a.From the Job Type list, select Proof Print.

b.If you are using the PostScript driver, click the Setup button. If you are using the PCL driver, click the Setting button.

c.In the Proof Print dialog box, type your name (8-character limit) in the Username field.

d.At the Retrieve Document Name field, do one of the following:

If you want to use a specific document name to access the document from the printer control panel at the time of printing, select Enter Document Name. In the Document Name field, type the name of the document as you want it to appear on the printer control panel (12-character limit).

If you want a timestamp to be displayed on the printer control panel instead of a document name, select Use Existing Name if you are using the PostScript driver. If you are using the PCL driver, select Auto Retrieve.

e.Click OK.

4.Select any other desired printing options including paper tray, paper type and paper size, and then click OK.

Note: Do NOT select the number of copies in the printer driver; you will do that at the control panel later when you print.

5.In the Print dialog box, click OK (or Print).
