Workflow Job Manager

Modifying the copy count

The [Copies...] option is available when a selected job is at the Review step. If the job’s workflow contains a Print step after the Review step, it opens the Copies dialog, in which the following options are available:

Quantity (original document): Allows you to change the number of copies to print, from 1-9999999, for all Print steps that follow the Review step in the workflow branch. Represents the quantity of the document as submitted via an XPIF, JDF or manifest value (order jacket file field for Quantity). If the copy count dialog is opened from a Review node prior to the copy count being modified by a multi-up repeated Imposition node, only this option displays.

Quantity (imposed document): Allows you to modify the imposed copy count. If the Copy Count dialog is opened from a Review node after the copy count is modified by a multi-up repeated Imposition node, this option is available and the Quantity (original document) cannot be modified. Quantity (imposed document) is available when you:

Process the job through a Xerox imposition node (not PREPS) that is multi-up repeated.

Enable the Copy Count Divisor feature via [Workflow Builder: Processes: right-click Impose: Settings...]. This feature enables the system to adjust the copy count to maintain the original quantity intent for workflows that contain multiple-up impositions.

Submit a job with a job ticket quantity intent.

Use Print nodes that do not have “Always use these settings” selected.

OK: Sets the copy counts of Print steps following the current Review step to the specified number.

During the Review task, if both Quantity (original document) and Quantity (imposed document) are available for a Print node, the value displayed in the Print node Quantity setting is the Quantiy (imposed document) value.

For more information about the copy count divisor, see the topic “To enable the copy count divisor.”
