[. . . ] These modes and a brief explanation of how they work are listed below. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NOTE: Before you read the information below, please read the following definitions to help you understand some of the terminology contained in the document. Copies: Copies are printed output from documents that are scanned through the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or, placed on the Flat bed scanner glass. Mopies: (Multiple Original Printed pages) Mopies are multiple copies of the same document printed from your desktop application using any of the M Series MFP printer drivers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NOTE: All menu selections described below are found in the control panel by selecting the following menu items: Press the "ADMINISTRATION" icon Press "DEVICE BEHAVIOR" icon Press "GENERAL COPY BEHAVIOR" Page 1 of 4 white paper ============================================================= SCAN AHEAD = ON OFF SCAN AHEAD allows a copy job to be scanned while the printer is printing another job. The job will be scanned and held until it can be printed. The time that it takes the copy job to interrupt the currently printing copy job will be determined by the number pages in each of the copies that are printing. Page 3 of 4 white paper Example: If someone is performing multiple copies of a large document and you would like to make a copy of a one page document, you can use this feature to interrupt their copy job to perform your smaller copy job without waiting for their entire job to finish. Mopy 1 Mopy 2 Mopy 3 Mopy 4 Example: Copy is able to interrupt here and will print in between mopy 2 and 3 of the print job ============================================================= HOLD OFF PRINT JOB = ON OFF Prevents network print jobs from starting within a user specified period after a copy job is completed. Example Based on the time setting that has been chosen, the product will delay network print jobs so that a user performing copies will have time to perform additional copies. NOTE: It is important to realize that when using this setting a work station or server may display an error that it is unable to send a print job to the printer. Where possible it may be necessary to configure the print server/connection so that it will not time out quickly when sending a print job to the printer. ============================================================= HOLD OFF TIME = 15 SECONDS Defines the amount of time that print jobs must wait if HOLD OFF PRINT JOB = ON.
