e-MPS is an abbreviation for enhanced-Multiple Printing System which
implements the following functions that are available from the printer
driver:
• Job Retention
• Job Storage
In either job mode, when printing a document, the print data is transferred
from the computer to the printer then stored on the printer's hard disk.
Since copies of the document are printed using the stored data, printing is
performed faster with less computer spooling time and less network traffic.
NOTE:
To use the e-MPS system, an optional hard disk must be installed
in the printer. For details, see Hard Disk on page 3-9.
The RAM disk may also be used in the Proof-and-Hold and Private Print
modes. See Using the RAM Disk on page 2-58 for details on RAM disk
setup.

selected from the printer driver through the application software:
