To use the e-MPS system, an optional hard disk must be in-
stalled in the printer. For details, see
Appendix B Option Units .
e-MPS is an abbreviation for ‘enhanced-Multiple Printing
System’ which implements the following functions that are
available from the printer driver:
• Job Retention
• Job Storage
In either job mode, when printing a document, the print data
is transferred from the computer to the printer then stored on
the printer’s Microdrive. Since copies of the document are
printed using the stored data, printing is performed faster
with less computer spooling time and less network traffic.
Job Retention
Job Retention has four modes as summarized below. These
modes are selected when you choose on the printer driver
through the application software:
*Jobs in excess will cause the earlier ones to be deleted.
Job Storage
Job storage stores print jobs either temporarily or perma-
nently, or in virtual mailboxes, as you click an appropriate ra-
dio button on the printer driver when printing from a
computer.
Virtual Mailbox
Virtual mailbox is part of Job Storage, which stores print jobs
on the Microdrive without printing. It enables you to retrieve
jobs later from the operator panel, or the KM-NET Job Man-
ager utility (in the CD-ROM).
Each mailbox may be used by an individual who desires to
share the printer in this mode. By default, each mailbox is
numbered from ‘Tray 001,’ ‘Tray 002,’... etc. To ‘post’ a job in
one of these mailboxes, you assign a numbered mailbox on the
printer driver when printing.
Up to 255 virtual mailboxes can be used and the number of
jobs stored in each box is not limited. You can store as many
jobs as the hard disk can hold.
To retrieve the stored job for printing, see
Printing Data
Stored in Virtual Mailbox (VMB) on page 1-39 .
