3-23 Queues window
Print area
The job icons in the Print area are described below:
The Print area, also referred to as the Printed queue, contains jobs that have already
been printed. These jobs were assigned the Print destination (white printer icon in the
Spool or RIP areas) without any Hold instructions; therefore, they all have white icons
and rows.
NOTE: A job row that appears in light red indicates that an error occurred while
printing the job. To see the error, double-click anywhere in the row.
Newly printed jobs are added to the Printed queue, and are shown at the top of the list.
Jobs are saved in the Printed queue until the job limit is reached. When the first job
over the limit is printed, the oldest job is deleted from the disk. The default job limit is
10 jobs. The value for Jobs Saved in Printed Queue can be changed in Setup by the
administrator.
NOTE: If you reprint a job in the Printed queue, the job returns to its original position
in the Printed queue after it is printed.
While it is printing, a job consists of PostScript and raster data. The raster data in
RAM is not cleared until memory is needed to rasterize the next job. As long as the
raster data is intact, the job can be reprinted from the Printed queue. Printed jobs that
still have their raster data are represented by a white raster icon in the Printed queue
(icon 2 in the previous table); jobs with only PostScript data remaining are represented
