Run Processing in the Background
All jobs must be processed before they can be printed. Therefore, either the Job
Processor must be running at all times, or the Job Editor or Client must be
configured to “Send original and PGS files” or “Send PGS files only.” If you close
the Job Processor window, processing stops and you will be unable to print files
that have not been preprocessed. However, you can minimize the Job Processor
window so that it runs in the background, without taking up space on your screen.
