sendingslicestotheConnexprinter.
To continue printing the model:
1. Switchtheprintertoonlinemodebyclickingtheredbuttonatthe
bottomoftheConnexprinterinterface(seefigure 7‐3onpage 3).
Thebuttonchangesfromredtogreen(seefigure 7‐4onpage 6).
2. MakesurethatthecomputernetworkconnectingtheprinterandJob
Managerserverisactive.
