Using the job-storage features
Four special job-storage features are available for this printer. All four are available when a hard
disk is installed. Private jobs and proof and hold jobs are available in RAM (with no hard disk
installed).
● Private jobs. When you send a private job to the printer, the job does not print until you
enter a PIN at the printer.
● Stored jobs. You can download a job such as a personnel form, time sheet, or calendar, to
the printer and allow other users to print the job at any time. Stored jobs are copied to the
optional hard disk and are not deleted if retention space on the printer becomes limited.
● QuickCopy jobs. You can print the requested number of copies of a job and then store a
copy of the job on the optional hard disk in the printer. Storing the job allows you to print
additional copies of the job later.
● Proof and hold jobs. This feature provides a quick and easy way to print and proof one
copy of a job and then print the additional copies.
Follow the instructions below to gain access to the job retention features at the computer. Then,
see the specific section for the type of job you want to create.
CAUTION If you turn the printer off, all QuickCopy, Proof and hold, and Private jobs are deleted.
To gain access to the job storage features
For Windows
1 On the File menu, click Print.
2 Click Properties and click the Job Storage tab.
3 Select the desired Job Storage Mode.
For Macintosh
In newer drivers: Select Job Retention from the pull-down menu in the print dialog box. In older
drivers, select Printer Specific Options.
Printing a private job
The private printing feature lets a user specify that a job is not printed until that user releases it
using a 4-digit personal identification number (PIN) through the printer control panel. The user
specifies the PIN in the driver, and the PIN is sent to the printer as part of the print job.
Note The private jobs feature uses available printer RAM memory if the printer does not have a hard
disk installed. For moderate to heavy use of this feature, HP recommends installing an optional
hard disk.
To create private jobs
To specify that a job is private from the driver, select the Private Job option, enter a User Name
and Job Name, and type a 4-digit PIN. The job will not print until you enter the PIN at the control
panel.
