Jobs in a Smart Inbox

You can use Smart Inboxes to manage your jobs. When you open the Jobs tab in Océ Express WebTools the Smart Inbox section displays an overview of the Smart Inboxes. Define one or more Smart Inbox names that allow you to easily organise and access your jobs. For more information, see The Smart Inbox in the Jobs tab and Create and open a Smart Inbox.

In the printer driver application or job submitter you can select the specific Smart Inbox you want to print to. When a job is kept in the Smart Inbox, you can start the job manually on the user panel or in Océ Express WebTools.

Under [Preferences] - [System defaults] - [Job management] you can determine rights, make settings for the Smart Inbox, and make more settings for general job management. For more information, see Configure the job management settings
