Status of currently processing print job
Print job in which a print error has occurred
The Backgrounder status window gives you
detailed information about the status of the print
job currently processing and about each print job
waiting in the queue. The status of the job
currently processing displays at the top of the
status window. The message indicates how much
of the job has been processed and displays any
other relevant information. This line is blank if, for
example, you manually start Backgrounder and no
job is currently being processed.
The list of queued jobs displays below the current
job in the order in which they were sent to the
printer. Some applications, however, may put each
page of the document into a separate spool file,
creating a different job in the queue for each page.
Print jobs are always added to the bottom of the
queue. When the job currently processing is
complete, the spool file for that job is deleted from
the hard disk, and the top-most job in the queue is
then processed.
Jobs that are Òon holdÓ are displayed at the bottom
of the job list in italic font. A job goes on hold
when it has been canceled or when an error is
detected during processing. An overall status
message about the Backgrounder displays in the
lower left corner of the window. The normal
message is ÒAvailable,Ó indicating that the
Backgrounder can process jobs immediately or add
them to the queue.
