Spool Printing

With Spool Printing, the print data is saved in the hard disk before printing. To
use this function, set it from the menu. See p.208 "spoolsw".
Important
❒ Use the "spoolsw clear job" Telnet command to clear a spooled print job. Do
not turn off the printer or computer while a print job is being spooled and the
Data In is flashing. Print jobs that are interrupted in this way remain on the
printer's hard disk and will finish printing out when the printer is turned
back on.
❒ The Spool Printing function is available when the optional hard disk is in-
stalled.
❒ The Spool Printing function is available for data received using diprint, lpr,
ipp, ftp, and sftp (TCP/IP (IPv6)).
❒ When using diprint, the Spool Printing function cannot be used with bidirec-
tional communication.
❒ The domain reserved for spool printing is about 1 GB.
❒ When Spool Printing is on, the size of a single print job cannot exceed 500 MB.
❒ When receiving jobs from multiple computers, the printer can spool a maxi-
mum of ten lpr jobs, and only one diprint, ipp, ftp, sftp, or smb job. If the
printer's spooling capacity is exceeded, newer jobs cannot be printed. You
must wait before sending further jobs.
Note
❒ Printing the first page with Spool Printing will be slow.
❒ The computer requires less print processing time when large amounts of data
are spooled.
❒ Stored spool jobs can be viewed or deleted using Web Image Monitor.
❒ The list of spool jobs cannot be viewed from the printer's control panel.
