Other Print Operations

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 canceled us-
ing the machine's control panel. This
can reduce misprints due to mistakes
in content or settings.

Note

❒ If the application has a collate op-

tion, make sure it is not selected
before sending a print job. By de-
fault, sample print jobs are auto-
matically collated by the printer
driver. If a collate option is select-
ed from the application's [Print] di-
a l o g b o x , m o r e p r i n t s t h a n
intended may be produced.

❒ You can identify the file you want

to print by 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.

❒ Turning off the machine's main

power switch deletes sample print
files.
