The Spool area is both the receiving area for jobs from users on the network (Hold 
queue) and the waiting area for jobs that will be RIPped.

—When printing requires an operator (because the Print queue and 

Direct connection are disabled), the operator must assign a destination to all jobs 
received from users on the network (Icon 1). Once assigned, jobs move down the 
Spool queue for processing (Icons 2, 3, and 4). All jobs printed to the Hold queue 
require routing by an operator. 

—When printing does not require an operator, network jobs sent to 

the Print queue appear in the Spool area, where they are displayed with a white printer 
icon (Icon 2). When jobs reach the head of the queue, they are RIPped and printed 
without operator intervention.

—Jobs printed to the Direct connection are not displayed in the job 

lists. They are displayed briefly in the status bars (where they cannot be selected) and 
are included in the Job Log.

The job icons in the RIP area are as follows: 

After a job is rasterized, it goes into the RIP area. The RIP area holds only jobs with 
raster data. Jobs in the RIP area are either waiting for the printer to be free (Print queue 
jobs, Icon 2), or they are being held (Icon 1). Held jobs in the RIP area have already 
been rasterized (RIP and Hold), or they have been printed and their raster data has 
been routed back to the RIP area 

(

Print and Hold).

Raster data, no destination 
defined; may have been 
printed before and held

Until it is deleted, moved to 
the Archive window, or 
stripped of its raster data and 
sent to the Spool area

Raster data headed for Print 
in its turn; no hold defined

Until printer is free to print
