automatically captured and sent to the appropriate printer queue.
l
Enable Hot Folders: Check to enable hot folders. Then enter the folders
from which the Print Manager will capture print files automatically and
send them to the appropriate Priority queue on the printer. There are
High, Medium and Low priority queues available and each can be set
here.
l
Extended Options (IPDS only) subsection: Defines logging of printer
activities.
l
Ack Pages: The number of pages to send to the printer for printing
before sending an acknowledgement request.
Acknowledgement requests slow the printing process down, as the
printer needs to process the request and return the information.
The default Ack Pages number is 100 pages which means the Print
Manager will send an acknowledgement request to the printer in 100
page increments until the end of the job. Given the overhead in
processing such requests, the smaller the Page number, the slower the
printing becomes.

l
End of Job Preferences (IPDS only) subsection: Select from these options
to determine job end processing.
l
Edge Marks: Select this to add an Edge Mark to the final page of a job.

in the job. For example, the Euro symbol might be present in the job, but
missing from the printer.
l
Report Page Position Check: When printed beyond the edge of the
page boundaries. For example, an image that extends beyond the edge
of the page.
l
Handle Errors: Stops on all other optional errors.
