Using Printer Hard Disk - Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-2000 Online Manual

Using Printer Hard Disk

The printer can save print jobs on the built-in hard disk.
Using print jobs stored on the printer enables you to print the jobs again as needed without using a
computer.
Saving print jobs offers the following benefits.
• Save the time spent using a computer
When you send a print job to the printer, you can save it on the printer after printing or simply save it on
the printer without printing it yet. Saved print jobs can be printed in the required quantity later without the
need to use a computer again.
• Simplify reprinting, if any errors occur
If errors occur in the middle of printing (as when paper runs out), you can resume printing after clearing
the error without resending the print job from a computer.
• Streamline printing work
Without using a computer, you can select print jobs and print in the desired quantity. You can also select
multiple print jobs to print during the same period. This enables unattended operation at night, for
example.
Output Method
To save print jobs on the printer's hard disk, configure the printer driver.
In Windows, this is set using the Output Method dialog box.
In Mac OS, this is set by selecting Additional Settings in the pop-up menu of the printer properties
dialog.
Print
Perform printing while saving the print job on the temporary storage area of the printer's hard disk.
Save in Job Box
Save print jobs on the permanent storage area of the printer's hard disk. Selecting this does not start
printing.
Print after reception is complete
This option is available in combination with Print. You can prevent degradation of print quality that
occurs when receiving a print job is interrupted and printing is aborted in the middle.
