Combine jobs
Introduction
The bundle function allows you to combine two or more jobs into one new job. For example, this
can be convenient when the participants of a meeting need several documents in a specific order.
Often, the required documents are sent from several workplaces to the printer in advance.
Normally, this means that you must print the documents first and sort or staple them later. By
using the bundle function you can determine the order of the documents before printing and
print all documents in the correct order in only 1 print job.
Important information about the bundle function
• You can only bundle print jobs that are currently in the list of [Waiting jobs].
• You can change a number of settings for the bundled job via the [Properties] window.
• By default, the number of sets for a bundled job is 1. So before printing, you must first indicate
the required number of sets.
• When you stop a job after a set, the printing stops after 1 copy of the complete bundle.
• The jobs in a bundle are accounted separately under the account ID of the original jobs.
• All the jobs in the bundle must have the same output location. Otherwise, the operator panel
displays a warning message. To continue, you must first split the bundled job, then change the
individual job settings and finally bundle the jobs again.

split into the original, separate jobs. The bundled job is removed.
The separate jobs are added to the bottom of the list of [Waiting
