Assigning and monitoring FreeForm Masters

Users can assign FreeForm Master numbers from 1 to 15 using the Create Master print
option when they send a job. These numbers can be changed to a number from 1 to
100 with job overrides from the Properties dialog box.
As with all job overrides that have a reRIP icon, in order for any new settings to
N :
OTE
take effect (including Create Master and Use Master), the job must be reRIPped. For
information on using the Properties dialog box to change job settings, see "Viewing
and overriding print settings" on page 2-9.
When the first 15 FreeForm Master numbers have been used, users may inadvertently
overwrite existing FreeForm Masters by assigning what they think are new, unused
FreeForm Master numbers. When users choose a master number from the Create
Master print option, an existing job using that master number will be overwritten (the
user will receive a message warning them that they are about to replace an existing job).
For this reason, the operator may bear the responsibility of deleting existing master
jobs or reassigning master numbers 1 through 15 in order to avoid any overwriting
problems. Since the operator is the only person who can assign numbers from 16 to
100, he or she can maintain a high level of control over the FreeForm Master numbers
in use.

Tips for using FreeForm

At sites where a small number of users print FreeForm jobs, the operator may want to
assign specific FreeForm Master numbers to specific users. In this way, users bear the
responsibility of monitoring their own master numbers. Users can then use the Create
Master print option to assign new masters or to overwrite existing masters. Users can
also instruct the operator to reassign master numbers (to a number greater than 15) for
FreeForm Masters they want to keep available on the GA-1040.
At sites where a large number of users print FreeForm jobs, the operator may want to
instruct users to not use the Create Master print option at all, but rather to RIP and
Hold all their jobs. In this way, the operator can decide which FreeForm Master
numbers to assign before printing.
For all jobs sent to the GA-1040, it is a good practice for users to specify information
to the operator with the Notes and Instructions fields in the Printer Job Notes dialog
