Printing a Stored Print file

The following procedure describes how to print a Stored Print file with the PCL 6/5e or PostScript 3 printer driver. For information about how to print a Stored Print file with the PostScript 3 printer driver, see "Using PostScript 3", PostScript 3 Supplement.

Important

  • Applications with their own drivers, such as PageMaker, do not support this function.

1Configure the Stored Print in the printer driver's properties.

You can select two ways for Stored Print:

  • [Stored Print]

    Stores the file in the printer and print it later using the control panel.

  • [Store and Print]

    Prints the file at once and also stores the file in the printer.

For details about configuring the printer drivers, see the relevant Help files.

2Click [Details...], and then enter a User ID in the [User ID:] box.

You can also set a password. The same password must be entered when printing or deleting.

You can also set a file name. The file name you set will be displayed on the printer's Job List screen.

3Start printing from the application's Print dialog box.

The Stored Print job is sent to the printer.

4On the printer's control panel, press [Prt.Jobs].

Note

  • When multiple files are selected without setting a quantity, one set less than the minimum number of all settings is applied. If the least number of settings is one set, all selected files will be printed at one set.

  • If the number of set quantity is changed when [User ID] is pressed in step 5, the changed quantity is applied to all selected files.

  • To stop printing after printing has started, press [JobReset]. A Stored Print file is not deleted even if [JobReset] is pressed.

  • The Stored Print file that sent to the printer is not deleted unless you delete a file or select [Auto Delete Stored Jobs].

  • You can set or delete a password after sending files to the printer. Select the file and press [Change] in the Print Job List screen. To set a password, enter the new password. To delete the password, leave the password box blank on entering or confirming the new password, and press the [OK] key.
