What is the Queue?

Your printer can store files in a queue at the same time as printing the current file.
It stores them by page, though if you send only single-page files, you can regard
these as files. The size of the queue is limited by the number of pages (maximum
32) and the total memory occupied by the queue (67 MB standard memory, being
71 MB less 4 MB main memory). Remember that file size and memory usage are
not the same thing, as explained on page 9-22. However, it is clear that the larger
are your files, the fewer you can store in the queue.

With queueing turned ON:

You can send one or more pages to the printer without waiting for the current
page to finish.

You can manipulate the pages in the queue, for example prioritizing them and
reprinting them.

You can use nesting, the printer’s media-saving feature (see page 6-9).

With queueing turned OFF:

The printer will not accept a file sent from the computer until the current page
has finished printing and the printer is ready.

You cannot use nesting (see page 6-9).

If you turn queueing off while pages are still in the queue, they will be printed and
– if nesting is on – nested, until the queue is empty.
