Printer Device Logs at the same time,
For the procedure of collecting the Printer device logs, see the service manual of the printer.
Job Error Report
Job Error Report contains the important troubleshooting information that the technical support personnel can use to
solve customer issues. When a user encounters a job error, system fault, or any unexpected output while printing a job,
the user can generate a report from Command WorkStation. The Job Error Report is a collection of job files, logs, and
server information in a zip file, and it is available from both Mac OS and Windows versions of Command WorkStation.
Note: The error log entries are overwritten after a period of time. To ensure the error logs contain the relevant
information, create the job error report as soon as possible after the error is observed. Create the job error report
before rebooting the E-46A and if possible, before any additional print jobs are processed or printed.
To create a job error report
1 In Command WorkStation, select the job that encountered the error from the Printed or Held list.
Only one job error report can be created at a time. If multiple jobs are selected in Job Center, the Create Error
Report button is not available.
Note: If the job that encountered the error is not available in the list, select another job from the same list. The job
error report stores all the latest logs, except for the archived jobs.
2 If accessing from a Windows client computer, press Ctrl and right-click the job. If accessing from a Mac OS client
computer, press Command and right-click the job.
