Description

[Copies]

A message can appear behind the number of copies:

  • 'x' sets printed as 1 copy

    The print file is sent to the printer. The file is printed once.

  • 'x' sets printed as 'y' copies

    The print file is sent to the printer along with an instruction to print the file 'y' times.

The maximum value for number of copies is 65000.

[Operator note]

Specify the [Operator note]. The [Operator note] is displayed on the operator panel, if your printer supports this functionality.

Back

Close the [Print options] and return to the job view.

[Defaults]

Restore the original print settings for the current document. The print settings are retrieved from the document.

[Test print]

Submit a document to the printer. The number of sets = 1.

[Print]

Submit a document to the printer.

[Printer]

Select the printer that you want to send your document to.

The printer list displays all available printers and printer clusters. When a printer in a cluster encounters a problem, an attention icon is displayed. A tooltip with additional information appears when you hover the mouse pointer over the icon.

  • If available, you can click the printer driver button to define options that are not available in the [Print options] dialogue. You can find this button next to the printer driver.

    For example, the printer driver of a colour printer can offer colour settings which are not supported by PRISMAdirect. If the [Print options] dialogue offers all driver settings, then the driver settings button is not added to the [Print options] dialogue.

Use the [Configuration] workspace to add new printers. An operator has limited configuration rights. A system administrator has full configuration rights.
