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.

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 2-23.

NOTE: The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.

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/RAM 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 2-25. 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.
