Work with the workflow profiles

Work with the workflow profiles
Introduction
The machine is used in different printing environments. Each environment requires other settings
to optimize the workflow or to meet your personal workflow preferences. The machine contains a
number of default workflow profiles to help you optimize your workflow. The default workflow
profiles are combinations of frequently used settings for print jobs ([Receive], [Print] and
[Output]). However, the workflow profiles cannot cover all the possible workflows you may need.
Therefore, you can also define the settings individually (custom workflow).
This section makes recommendations about when to use which workflow profile. Furthermore,
this section describes the settings and the effects of the settings.
NOTE
The [Workflow profile] button in the [Setup] section of the [System] view displays the name of
the selected workflow profile. When you customized the settings of a workflow profile, the
button displays the text [Custom].

When to use
You need a productive workflow but you still want to have sufficient
control over the jobs.
You want to start the jobs one by one. Each time a job has been prin-
ted, the machine goes on hold. Always touch [Resume] in the dash-
board to start the next job.
You want to check the quality and layout of each first set of a job be-
fore the remaining sets will be printed.
The jobs are sent to the machine in a random order. You can manually
define the most productive order in which the machine will print the
jobs.
You want to continue printing while you are absent, for example after
working hours. Then the machine will print the scheduled jobs, provi-
ded that all the required media, supplies and output locations are avail-
able.
