Previewing with Check Print

Requirements

  • Plus Features (Option FP, order number Z740FP)
  • Enable the feature in the printer's front panel

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 default timeout, and select the option in the printer driver.

Enable Check Print and reset the timeout

  1. In the front panel, press Menu. Press <--- or ---> until the display reads Printer Defaults.
  2. Press Menu. Scroll to Check Print.
  3. Press Menu; the following message appears:
  4. Check Print:disabled *
    <--- ---> OK

    The asterisk ( * ) indicates the current setting.

  5. Scroll to enabled and press OK.
  6. Change the timeout (the amount of time the printer pauses before completing the print job):
    1. Scroll to Check Print Timeout. Press Menu.
    2. Scroll the pre-set timeouts, then press OK to activate your selection.

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 Xerox web site.
