Setting Image Preload
J Expansion CompactFlash card required
You can select whether data for ordered images is loaded
onto the unit before printing begins.
When image preload is enabled, data for ordered images is
loaded from a memory card or CD/DVD onto the
expansion CompactFlash card immediately before printing
begins. When loading is complete, the memory card and
CD/DVD removal screen appears. As users must remove
their memory cards before printing begins, this function
minimizes the risk of users forgetting their memory cards.
• When this function is enabled, the number of images that
can be printed in a single order is limited to the available
capacity on the expansion CompactFlash card.
When printing index prints, split image prints, or other
such prints that include multiple images on a single
sheet, each of these images are copied onto the
expansion CompactFlash card.
Therefore, be sure to use an expansion CompactFlash
card with a large capacity.
• Images may take longer to load before printing,
depending on the number and size of images ordered.
• When this function is enabled, it is not possible to go
back and change order settings after advancing to the
order confirmation screen.
1
Open the System tab on the administration screen.
2
Touch the [ON] button for [Load images before printing].
When image preload is disabled, images are loaded from a
memory card or CD/DVD during printing. When printing
is complete, a message prompting the user to remove their
memory card or CD/DVD appears on the screen.
Entering Passwords
Using Memory Cards
(Remote Password Input)
J Expansion CompactFlash card required
When the checkout password is requested, instead of using
the onscreen numeric keypad to enter the password, it is
possible to use a memory card or a USB memory in which
the password has previously been stored.
In order to do so, it is necessary to first create a file
containing the password (the password file) on the
administration screen, and then store that file in a memory
card or USB memory.
The memory card or USB memory containing the
password file can be read by inserting it into a card reader
connected to the USB port (host) located at the top of the
unit, or into the USB port (host) itself. The memory card
slot on the front of the unit can also be used.
Creating a password file
1
Make sure that an expansion CompactFlash card has
been inserted.
2
On the Administration tab of the administration
screen, set the checkout password and then touch the
button.
The password file (named “snaplab.txt”) is created in
the root folder of the expansion CompactFlash card.
The file contents are described below.
**** = Password that was set
3
Remove the expansion CompactFlash card, and copy
the password file to the root folder of the memory card
to be used.
The password file cannot be used as is, stored in the
expansion CompactFlash card.
No password file is created when setting the
administrator password.
