Advanced Document Processing

The magicolor 2450's printer driver provides several advanced
document processing functions:
Printer-based electronic collation
N-up printing
Form overlays
Watermarks
Cover page
Job retention
Printer-based electronic collation
Instead of transmitting a multiple-page print job several times over the
network to print the number of copies required, simply tell the printer
driver how many copies you want. The job is transmitted once, but the
printer outputs the required number of copies. Called printer-based
electronic collation, this feature enables the printer to deliver the
required number of copies, with the pages in the proper order, without
bogging down the transmission line (Hard Disk required).
N-up printing
The printer driver's n-up option allows you to print a 2, 4, 6, 9, or 16
pages of a multi-page document on a single sheet of media. Add a
border line and select the flow of the pages across the sheet using
easy-to-understand settings.
Form overlays
A form overlay is an image that is printed either on the first page or on
all pages of a document.
Watermarks
A watermark is a word or phrase that is repeated on each printed page.
You can add common text watermarks such as "CONFIDENTIAL" and
"DRAFT" to a document—or create a custom watermark. The printer
driver also includes selections for indicating the watermark's font, style,
size, color, placement, and angle.
Cover page
This function allows users to pull different media from a designated
paper tray for use as a Cover page and/or Back page. Users can also
choose to divide multiple copies of a print out with a Separator page.
Job Retention
Access job retention options, including Stored Job, Print and Hold,
Secured Job, and Proof then Print, through the printer driver. A hard
disk must be installed to activate these functions that offer convenience
and security. See "Printer Memory" for a complete description of each.
