Job Storage
Job storage stores print jobs either temporarily or permanently, or in virtual mailboxes, as
you click an appropriate radio 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 hard disk without
printing. It enables you to retrieve jobs later from the operator panel or the
KM-NET
Printer Disk Manager 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 or named mailbox on the printer driver
when printing.
To retrieve the stored job for printing, see
Retrieving Jobs from Virtual Mailbox (VMB) on
page 3-28
.
Note
The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.
3.4.1
Using Quick Copy
This mode enables you to print the requested number of copies of a job, simultaneously
storing the job on the hard disk. When additional copies are required, you can reprint the
required number of copies from the printer operator panel. To print a job as a quick copy
job, see
KX Printer Drivers Operation Guide
.
The default number of print jobs that can be stored on the hard disk is 32. This value can be
increased to up to 50 from the e-MPS Configuration menu. For details, see
Changing the
Maximum Number of Quick Copy/Proof-and-Hold Jobs on page 3-30
. When the number of
jobs reaches the limit, the oldest job will be overwritten by the new one.
When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
