Previewing with Check Print

Requirements

  • Plus Feature Set
  • Enable the feature in the printer's front panel
  • Select Check Print in the driver software (see Use Check Print ).

When printing multiple pages through the driver (either multiple copies of a single page or a multiple-page file), select Check Print to preview the first page of the job before proceeding with the remainder of the job; this feature is useful when printing a large job.

Access to Check Print from the driver is enabled and disabled in the printer's front panel. You can also set the timeout in the front panel (timeout is the amount of time the printer waits after sending the first page of a file before it continues with the remainder of the job).

The factory default for Check Print is "disabled"; the default timeout is 5 minutes. Follow these instructions to enable Check Print in the front panel, reset the timeout, and select the option in the printer driver.

Enable Check Print and reset the timeout

  1. At the front panel Ready message, press Select.
  2. Press the right arrow button until the display reads Printer Defaults.
  3. Press Menu. Then press the right arrow button until the following message appears:
  4. Printer Defaults
    Check Print: Off Menu
  5. Press Menu; the following message appears, where the asterisk (*) indicates the current setting:
  6. Check Print
    *Off Select
  7. Press the right arrow button; the following message appears:
  8. Check Print
    On Select
  9. Press Select.
  10. Change the timeout (the amount of time the printer pauses before completing the print job): When the front panel displays Printer Defaults/Check Print Timeout, press Menu.
  11. Scroll to the preset timeouts, then press Select to activate your selection.

  12. NOTE
    You can also enable Check Print and control the default timeout through PhaserLink software. For details on PhaserLink software, refer to the PhaserShare Networking Manual on the printer's CD-ROM or web site.
