							Embedded Web Server job queue page
You can manage your printers job queue from the HP Printer Utility, see Access the HP Printer
Utility on page 20, or the printers Embedded Web Server, see Access the Embedded Web Server
on page 20.
The job queue page shows all jobs that are available in the printer job queue. It includes jobs that are
being received, parsed, rendered, printed and already printed.
The following information is displayed for each job:
●Preview: Click the icon to see the job preview. The job preview is available once the job is
processed.
●File name: Click the file name to see the properties of the job.
●Status: Gives the current job status.
●Pages: Number of pages in the job.
●Copies: Number of copies printed.
●Date: Date and time the printer received the job.
●User: The users name.
Jobs in the queue can be sorted by any of the information items (except Preview) by clicking on the title
of the corresponding column. You can perform the following operations on one or all jobs in the queue:
●Cancel: Cancels the selected jobs. You are asked to confirm before the job is canceled. The job
remains stored in the printer, but it is not printed unless you click Reprint.
●Hold: Holds the selected jobs until you click Continue to print.
●Continue: All selected jobs, which are on hold, continue printing.
●Reprint: Prints more copies of a job. Type the number of copies (default 1, maximum 99) and
click Print.
●Move to front: Sends all selected jobs to the top of the job queue.
●Delete: Deletes selected jobs from the job queue. You are asked to confirm before the job is
deleted.
●Refresh: Refreshes the page, ensuring the information is updated.
NOTE:The job queue page does not automatically update.
Job preview
The printer samples all incoming jobs and generates a JPEG file that can be served as a preview of the
job. This preview is available for all languages supported by the printer: PDF, PS, CALS/G4, TIFF and
JPEG.
TIP:Do not send a job for preview with more than 64 pages.
ENWW Embedded Web Server job queue page 105
Job queue
 
						

							Job preview is available once the job is processed. To access the preview page, click the magnifying
glass icon, which appears in the Preview column on the job queue page. The preview page shows the
following job details along with a thumbnail preview of the job:
●File name: The file name of the job.
●Loaded paper: The type of paper loaded in the printer.
●Job dimensions: The dimensions of the job.
To see a larger preview of the job, click either the job thumbnail or the magnifying glass icon, which
appears on the right hand side of the printer image.
NOTE:Browsers without the Macromedia plug-in show the job image as yellow shaded. Browsers
that have the Macromedia flash plug-in version 7 and above shows an enhanced preview of the job
image inside the paper loaded in the printer.
Turn off the job queue
You can turn off the queue from the Embedded Web Server, select Setup tab > Printer settings > Job
management > Queue and select Off; or from the front panel: select the Setup menu icon 
,
then Job management options > Enable queue > On/Off.
Select when to print a job in the queue
NOTE:The When To Start Printing options cannot be used with PostScript jobs.
You can select at what point you want to print a file you have in the queue. From the Embedded Web
Server, select Setup tab > Printer settings > Start printing; or, from the front panel, select the Setup
menu icon 
, then Job management options > When to start printing.
There are three options you can select:
●When After Processing is selected, the printer waits until the whole page has been processed
and then it starts to print. This is the slowest setting but ensures the best print quality in large or
complex prints.
●When Immediately is selected, the printer prints the page as it is processed. This is the quickest
setting, but the printer may stop halfway through a print to process data. This setting is not
recommended for complex images with dense color.
●When Optimized is selected (this is the default setting), the printer calculates the best time to begin
printing the page. It is usually the best compromise between the After Processing and
Immediately settings.
Identify a job in the queue
The best way to look at the queue is in the Embedded Web Server (Main tab > Job queue), where you
can manage the queue and get full information on every job (by clicking the name of the file).
However, you can also manage the queue from the front panel. To do so, select the Job Queue menu
icon 
, then Job queue, where you can see a list of the jobs in the queue.
Each has an identifier, comprising:
: 
106 Chapter 7   Job queue management ENWW
Job queue
 
						

							The job currently being printed has a pointing hand icon, jobs already printed have a check mark,
canceled jobs have crosses, processing jobs have a clock and jobs on hold have a warning.
Prioritize a job in the queue
To make any job in the queue the next one to be printed, select it and choose Reprint (in the Embedded
Web Server) or Move to front (in the front panel).
If nesting is turned on, the prioritized job may still be nested with others. If you really want this job to be
printed next, and on its own on the roll, first turn nesting off and then move it to the front of the queue
as described above.
Delete a job from the queue
Under normal circumstances, there is no need to delete a job from the queue after printing it, as it is
removed from the queue as more files are sent. However, if you have sent a file in error, and want to
avoid any chance of it being reprinted, you can simply delete it, by selecting it and choosing Delete (in
the Embedded Web Server or in the front panel).
In the same way, you can delete a job that has not been printed yet.
If the job is currently being printed (Status = printing in the Embedded Web Server, or it is the first job
in the queue in the front panel), and you want both to cancel the job and to delete it, first click the Cancel
icon in the Embedded Web Server, or press the Cancel key on the front panel, and then delete it from
the queue.
Reprint or copy a job in the queue
To reprint or make extra copies of any job in the queue, select the job in the Embedded Web Server
and click the Reprint icon, then specify the number of copies you want. The job is moved to the top of
the queue. To make more than one print of a non-printed job in the queue from the front panel, select
the job and choose Copies, then specify the number of copies required and press the Select key. This
overrides any value set by your software.
NOTE:If Rotate was On when you sent the file, every copy is rotated.
You can reprint an already-printed job from the front panel. Select the Job Queue menu icon , then
select the job from the queue, then select Reprint.
NOTE:You cannot use this method for PCL3 jobs. To reprint old jobs that are PCL3, you may be able
to use your operating systems printer spooler, if you have already set the spooler to save old jobs. This
facility depends on your operating system.
Job status messages
These are the possible job status messages, approximately in the order in which they may be seen:
●Receiving: the printer is receiving the job from the computer
●Waiting to process: the job has been received by the printer and is waiting to be rendered (for
jobs submitted through the Embedded Web Server only)
●Processing: the printer is parsing and rendering the job
●Preparing to print: the printer is performing writing system checks before printing the job
●Waiting to print: the job is waiting for the print engine to become free to proceed with printing

							●Waiting for nest: the printer is set up with nesting on and is waiting for other jobs in order to
complete the nest and proceed with printing
●On hold: the job was sent with the on hold for preview option and is on hold
TIP:Do not send a job for preview with more than 64 pages.
NOTE:If the printer hangs up while printing a job, and the queue facility is turned on, the partially
printed job appears in the queue as on hold when the printer is next turned on. When you resume
the job, it starts printing at the page it was interrupted.
●On hold for paper: the job cant be printed because paper is not loaded in the printer. Load the
required paper, see 
Paper handling on page 25, and click Continue to resume the job
●On hold for accounting: the job cant be printed because the printer requires all jobs to have an
account ID: enter the account ID and then click Continue to resume the job
●Printing
●Drying
●Cutting paper
●Ejecting page
●Canceling: the job is being canceled, but remains in the printer job queue
●Deleting: the job is being deleted from the printer
●Printed
●Canceled: the job has been canceled by the printer
●Canceled by user
●Empty job: the job does not contain anything to print
Remove a hold
When the printer puts a job on hold you receive an alert, see Printer alerts on page 179, which explains
why the job is on hold. Follow the instructions on the screen to remove the hold and continue printing.
