Configuring Spool Printing

The machine temporarily stores print jobs transferred from a computer before printing. Spool Printing shortens the printing process time on the computer when printing a large volume of data.

Important

  • As the machine accesses the hard disk during Spool Printing, the data lamp flashes. If the power of the machine or computer is turned off during Spool Printing, the hard disk may be damaged. Do not turn off the power during Spool Printing.
