PRIORITY PROCESSING OF A RESERVED JOB

Overview

This function gives priority to processing of copied, faxed or image send jobs arising later to jobs already in a queue for printing or sending.
Priority processing operation varies, as follows, depending on the job type.
  • Job on the print tab
    The job currently in progress is suspended to let the priority job make interruption.
  • Job on the scanner/fax/Internet fax tab
    The priority job is moved directly under the job currently in progress.
