Spool Printing  
Spool Printing  
Spool Printing allows print jobs transferred from a computer to be temporarily  
stored, and then prints them after they are transferred. This shortens printing  
time as it maximizes printer efficiency.  
Important  
During Spool Printing, the hard disk is accessed and the Data In indicator  
blinks. Turning off the computer or machine during Spool Printing can dam-  
age the hard disk. Also, if the computer or machine is turned off during Spool  
Printing, spooled jobs will be deleted. Therefore, do not turn the power to the  
computer or machine off during Spool Printing.  
3
If data is sent to the machine using other protocols besides diprint, lpr, ipp,  
smb (TCP/IP (IPv6)), and sftp, Spool Printing cannot be performed.  
Up to a maximum of 150 jobs at once can be spool printed.  
This function is available only on machines that have Function Upgrade Op-  
tion type C1500 installed.

Collate  
Note  
You can set Collate in the RPCS printer driver.  
If Auto Continue occurs on the first set, Collate will be canceled.  
If forced printing occurs on the first set, Collate will be canceled.  
If a document with mixed paper sizes or sizes larger than A4, 81/2 × 11 is set,  
it can only be collated, even if Rotating Collate has been selected.  
When Rotating Collate has been selected, printing speed will be slower than  
with other collate functions.  
When setting Collate in the printer driver settings, make sure that a collate  
option is not selected in the application's print settings. If a collate option is  
selected, printing will not be as intended.
