Check the first set
Introduction
If you have a large print job and you want to check whether the job is printed correctly, it is
advised to check the first set before printing all other sets. When a job is sent to the printer, the
submitter can indicate in the job submission application that the first set must be checked.
However, the workflow profile that is selected on the operator panel determines how the printer
handles these requests.
Depending on the selected workflow profile, the [Check first set] setting can have the following
values:
• [On]
• [Off]
• [As in job]
When you use the [Check first set] function, the printed set is subtracted from the indicated total
number of sets for a job. For example, when you need 10 sets, the printer will print the first set
and then stop. When you continue the job, the 9 remaining sets are printed. This is different from
printing a proof.
Methods to check the first set
You can use 1 of the following methods to indicate that you want to check the first set.
• Use a workflow profile where [Check first set] is enabled. Then the printer stops after the first
set.
• Enable the function [Check first set] in the [Properties] window for a specific job only. However,
you can only change the [Check first set] setting there when a workflow profile is selected
where the [Check first set] setting is [As in job].
NOTE
You cannot change this setting for the active print job .
