Print Job Control Module

(appears when a
batch job is loa-
ded)

In the  Batch Mode Operation individual print jobs are  sent from the  RIP to
the printer, and then combined on the  printer to  create a  batch job for flat-
bed printing. There are two  types of  batch mode jobs: Composite and Col-
lation.
In a Composite batch all  images are  printed on a single piece of  media
without interruption. Composite batch mode  can be  used to  efficiently print
more than three data layers and/or mix  print modes  for a batch job.

A Collation batch  prints  a set  of individual print jobs  on  individual pieces  of
media, and then repeats  the  number of  copies of  the set,  as required. The
gantry moves to  the park  position between  each print job,  the media is
changed, and media thickness confirmation and pushing the start button is
required to  continue printing the next copy.
Refer to  Chapter 6 "How  to  Print  in Batch Mode" for  more details and exam-
ples.

Ink Temperature

Control

This icon displays the current ink temperature. The ink heater must be on
at all times.
The printheads must be at operating temperature (47°C / 116°F) before a
job will start printing.

NOTE

If this button is flashing, it indicates an error. Click on the Ink Sta-
tus button to check the ink system.

UV Curing Lamp

Control

This icon  controls the UV curing lamps. The  state of the  button reflects the
state of the  lamps. The UV lamps will  timeout after 15  minutes of  inactivity
(time can be  changed by a service technician). If lamps are  extinguished
when the timeout expired, then the button changes its  status to  unchecked.
If lamps are off  before the print starts,  then  lamps are  turned on  automati-
cally  and the button would reflect the state accordingly.

Table vacuum

These icons controls the table vacuum for  Zones A & B. They  duplicates the
function of the  table vacuum foot switches. The icon  reflects the actual state
of the  table vacuums. There is an  automatic timeout that will  turn the table
vacuum zones off. The  actual time is set  in the  Settings module under
Printer.

NOTE

Once turned off, vacuum cannot be turned on again for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.

Start

This icon can be used to start a flatbed print job (same function as the
physical button on the table).

Nozzle check

This icon populates the active job list with a job that prints a nozzle check
pattern. The nozzle check print is used to identify nozzle dropouts that can
cause banding and other print quality problems.

NOTE

For information on how to use the nozzle check to troubleshoot
nozzle dropouts, see the Printhead Maintenance section in the
Maintenance chapter.

6) Active Print Job List

The active job list consists of a table, job count summary on top and job order control buttons on
the left. A job count summary displays total number of active jobs and number of jobs put on
