Outputting Multiple Jobs at Once

This section explains how to group multiple jobs and thereby output them with a single operation.

For example, if you group together printing data A, printing data B, and printing data C and print three copies, you will obtain three products each having the printing data in the order A-B-C. Also, by grouping white printing data, CMYK printing data, and gloss printing data and performing pullback printing with the white and CMYK printing data, you can obtain layered printing in the order of white > CMYK > gloss. Depending on the model you are using, this setting may be disabled.

Unlike nested jobs, the layout of the printing data cannot be changed for grouped jobs, so printing such as that described under Optimizing Media Usage is not possible.

Procedure
  1. Select multiple jobs from the job list.
    To select multiple jobs, perform one of the following operations:
    • While holding down the Ctrl key, click the jobs one by one.
    • While holding down the Shift key, click the first job to select, and then click the last job to select.
  2. Right-click in the window, and then click Multiple Job Grouping.
    The selected jobs are grouped.
  3. Select the generated job group and print it.
