2.Select [System Preferences].

3.Under Scheduling Mode, click Resource Based Scheduling.

NOTE: See the Online Help for detailed procedures.

Hot folder submission

Hot folders provides a fast and convenient method to submit print- ready jobs into network folders. It enables users to drag and drop files into any Xerox Freeflow Print Server queue for automatic printing.
