Making a Partial Print as a Test and Printing the Rest of the Document
Print Mode for Storing Documents
Select a storage type for documents to store in the machine on [Job Type:] in the printer driver.
You can select from two storage types: "Quick Print Release" and "Document Server".
Using Quick Print Release
You can view the stored document list for each user ID. You can print your document with a simple procedure.
You can use the following storage types:
Locked Print
Specify a password for the document to store. A password is required to print the document from the control panel, making this suitable for confidential documents. Locked Print jobs will be deleted after they are printed.
On machines installed with RICOH Always Current Technology v1.2 or later, you can also enhance security of the data by encrypting the document when storing it from a computer.
Hold Print
Hold Print jobs will be deleted after they are printed. Hold Print is useful when combining and printing multiple documents or when holding a document temporarily in the machine to print later. You can also specify the time to print a stored document.
Stored Print
Stored Print is useful when printing the same document repeatedly, as the document will not be deleted even after the printing has been completed. You can also print the document immediately and also store the document in the machine, and you can share the document with a user who has sharing privileges.
On machines installed with RICOH Always Current Technology v1.2 or later, you can also enhance security of the data by encrypting the document when storing it from a computer.
Encrypting the Document when Storing It
Documents for Stored Print are automatically deleted after 72 hours (3 days). You can change the period until documents are deleted on [Auto Delete Stored Print Jobs] in [Printer Settings].
Using the Document Server
You can view the stored document list for each folder. You can organize documents using folders created to suit your needs. You can also store documents together with the data scanned by the document server function.
You can specify a password for the documents stored in the document server or share them with a user who has sharing privileges.
You can view the document in the document server using Web Image Monitor from the computer.
Documents stored in the document server are automatically deleted after 72 hours (3 days). You can change the period until documents are deleted on [Auto Delete File in Document Server] in [System Settings].
Do not cancel sending of data for the Document Server in the middle of the process. The process may not be canceled properly. If you have canceled the process, delete the data on the control panel of the machine again.
There are upper limits for the number of documents and pages that can be stored.
You can confirm the files that have not been stored with the error logs.
