action immediately on the connected printer.
In Scripting, when you have completed editing the Script Detail
dialogue box, you click OK to add the action to the Script. You
continue adding all the actions you want to the script. You save the
script to be executed at a later time.
Pause The Pause action is a Scripting action that is not available as a Load File
/ Control option in Section 7.4. Use the Pause as necessary between file
loads in your script. For example, if you load a large file into the printer,
you might want to delay a few seconds to give the printer time to save
the file to memory before proceeding to the next load action in the
script.

icon, or on the Script menu bar:
1 Click Script
