Printing confidential and other
held jobs
Holding jobs in the printer
When sending a job to the printer, you can specify in the Print
Properties that you want the printer to hold the job in memory
until you start the job from the control panel. All print jobs that
can be initiated by the user at the printer are called held jobs.
Note: Confidential, Repeat, Reserve, and Verify print jobs may be
deleted if the printer requires extra memory to process additional
held jobs.
Job type Description
Confidential When you send a Confidential print job to
the printer, you must create a PIN in Print
Properties. The PIN must be four digits using
the numbers 0–9. The job is held in printer
memory until you enter the PIN from the
control panel and choose to print or delete
the job.
Repeat When you send a Repeat print job, the
printer prints all requested copies of the job
and stores the job in memory so you can
print additional copies later. You can print
additional copies as long as the job remains
stored in memory.
Reserve When you send a Reserve print job, the
printer does not print the job immediately.
It stores the job in memory so you can print
the job later. The job is held in memory until
you delete it from the Held Jobs menu.
Verify When you send a Verify print job, the printer
prints one copy and holds the remaining
copies in printer memory. Verify lets you
examine the first copy to see if it is
satisfactory before printing the remaining
copies. Once all copies are printed, the job is
automatically deleted from printer memory.
