INTERRUPTING A COPY RUN (Interrupt copy) When you need to make an urgent copy and the machine is busy with a long copy run or other job, use interrupt copy. Interrupt copy temporarily stops the job in progress and lets you perform the interrupt copy job first. Copies in progress from tray 2.
• If user authentication is enabled, the login screen will appear when the [Interrupt] key is pressed. Enter your user name and password to log in. The number of copies made will be added to the count of the user that logged in. • Depending on the settings of the job in progress, the [Interrupt] key may not appear. • Depending on the settings of the job in progress, the [Reserve] key may appear instead of the [Interrupt] key. Unlike interrupt copy, reserve copy does not temporarily stop the job in progress.
JOB STATUS SCREEN The job status screen is displayed when the [JOB STATUS] key on the operation panel is pressed. The job status screen shows the status of jobs by mode. When the [JOB STATUS] key is pressed, the job status screen of the mode that was being used before the key was pressed appears.

This section explains the job queue screen and the completed jobs screen, which are related to copy mode.
Job key display Each job key shows the position of the job in the job queue and the current status of the job. 2 (1) (1) Copy (2) 002/000 (3) (4) (6) Indicates the number (position) of the job in the job queue. Mode icon The icon appears when the job is a copy job. In the completed jobs screen, a colour bar appears next to the icon to indicate whether the job was executed in colour or black & white.
GIVING PRIORITY TO A JOB IN THE QUEUE If a copy job is begun when there are already multiple jobs in the queue, the copy job will appear at the end of the queue. However, if you have an urgent copy job, you can give priority to the job and have it executed first. Touch the key of the urgent job and then touch the [Priority] key.
