Tracking and managing jobs with Fiery WebSpooler
About the Fiery WebSpooler window
Like the Command WorkStation, Fiery WebSpooler is a window to view GA-1040
and copier functions, and an interface from which you can control those functions.
The Fiery WebSpooler window is divided into three areas by Spool, RIP, and Print
status bars. When the GA-1040 receives print jobs, the Fiery WebSpooler window
becomes a dynamic display, filled with the names of jobs and their characteristics.
The Spool, RIP, and Print areas of the Fiery WebSpooler window represent the stages
of printing a job. Jobs come in at the top level (Spool) and drop down to the Print
level, unless they are held along the way.
The job icons displayed in the Fiery WebSpooler window are explained in “Job icons”
on page 1-19.

In the Fiery WebSpooler window, the background color for the yellow and white
printer icons is the same.
Spooled jobs
—Jobs listed in the area below the Spool status bar are PostScript files
stored on the GA-1040 disk. These jobs were sent to either the Print queue (white
icons) or the Hold queue (yellow icons).
RIPped jobs
—Jobs listed in the area below the RIP status bar are ready to print. They
have already been rasterized (RIPped, or processed for printing) and are waiting, in
order, for access to the printer. Rasterized jobs can also be held; held jobs are shown
with a yellow icon.
Printed jobs
—Jobs listed in the area below the Print status bar have already been
printed. Printed jobs can be stored on the GA-1040 disk. The number of jobs that can
be stored (from 1 to 99) is defined in Setup.
If you are logged in as Administrator or Operator, you can interact with a job wherever
it appears in the window by selecting it and choosing a command from the Job menu,
or by double-clicking the job and setting override options. See “Manipulating job
options and job flow” on page 7-4 for information.
