Actions

When selecting the Process / Send option, the following window is displayed. In this window, three possible options appear: Process Only, Process, and Send and Send. When you send a job you will be able to set the number of identical copies desired. You also have the possibility to send a processed job to a file, selecting the location for it on the computer. In Copy mode, the number of copies desired can be introduced.


The Length mode will only be activated for Rapport prints (unlimited copies) when the option is activated in the RIP, and if a Rapport document has been generated. Here you can set up the desired length of the printout. The options of establishing a Bi-directional Print and Cut Sheet at the End can be selected on this window too. Finally, the option Origin Setup can be established here, leaving some unprinted media space both lengthwise (Pre-feed) and/or widthwise (Displacement).
