Pausing and Resuming Printing

When printing a job, the software begins RIPing the file. RIP, which stands for Raster

Image Processor, is a process that converts the selected file into a series of dots that are

used to reproduce the file on the selected media. RIPing involves a complex algorithmic

process that requires a significant portion of your computer’s processing capacity. Larger

files, in terms of MB, take longer to RIP than smaller files. The nature of the RIP process

makes it impossible to pause and restart. For this reason, the Pause button is dimmed to

prevent you from pausing a job during the RIP process. However, once a job is done

RIPing and has begun printing, you can use the Pause button to stop and restart the

printing process as often as desired.

To Pause or Resume a Job

1. Select the job to pause by selecting it in the RIP Software’s Print Monitor window.

2. Click the Pause icon.

3. Click the Pause button again (Resume) to resume the printing process.

Aborting a Print Job

Although a job cannot be paused during the RIP process, the job can be aborted. After

aborting a job, all RIP’ed information is lost and the process must start again.

To Abort a Print Job

1. Select the job to abort by selecting it in the RIP Software’s Print Monitor window.

2. From the File menu choose Abort a Job or click the icon Saving a Job

Printing Directly from an Application

Once you have specified setup properties, you can print directly from your application

without adjusting any values from the Print Monitor menus.
