3. Sample Print/Locked Print
Sample Print
Use this function to print only the first
set of a multiple-set print job. After
you have checked the result, remain-
ing sets can be printed or cancelled
using the machine's control panel.
This can help in avoiding large
amounts of misprints due to mistakes
in the content or in the print settings.
Note
❒ If the application has a collate op-
tion, make sure that it is not select-
ed before sending a print job. By
default, sample print jobs are auto-
matically collated by the printer
driver. If a collate option is select-
ed from the application print dia-
log box, more prints than intended
may be printed.
❒ You can identify the file you want
to print by the user ID and date
and time when the job was stored.
❒ The number of pages the machine
can save depends on the contents
of the print image. For example,
the machine can save up to 30 jobs
or 1,000 pages, including locked
print files, depending on data vol-
ume.
❒ If the first set of the sample print
files is not as you expected and you
do not want to print remaining
sets, delete the sample print file us-
ing the display panel. If you print
the remaining sets of the sample
print file, the job in the machine is
deleted automatically.
