Chapter 3 Using the Operator Panel

Job Storage
Job storage stores print jobs either temporarily or perma-
nently, or in virtual mailboxes, as you click an appropriate ra-
dio button on the printer driver when printing from a
computer.
Virtual Mailbox
Virtual mailbox is part of Job Storage, which stores print jobs
on the hard disk without printing. It enables you to retrieve
jobs later from the operator panel.
Each mailbox may be used by an individual who desires to
share the printer in this mode. By default, each mailbox is
numbered from ‘Tray 001,’ ‘Tray 002,’ ... etc. To ‘post’ a job in
one of these mailboxes, you assign a numbered or named
mailbox on the printer driver when printing.
To retrieve the stored job for printing, see
Retrieving Jobs
from Virtual Mailbox (VMB) on page 3-16
.
The virtual mailbox can be used in PCL 6 emulation only.
Using Quick Copy
This mode enables you to print the requested number of cop-
ies of a job, simultaneously storing the job on the hard disk.
When additional copies are required, you can reprint the re-
quired number of copies from the printer operator panel. To
print a job as a quick copy job, see
Printer Driver Guide
.
The default number of print jobs that can be stored on the hard
disk is 32. This value can be increased to up to 50 from the e-
MPS Configuration menu. For details, see
Changing e-MPS
Configuration on page 3-16
. When the number of jobs reaches
the limit, the oldest job will be overwritten by the new one.
When the printer is turned off, all stored jobs will be deleted.
