3-25 Managing jobs with multiple color servers
TO VIEW AND MANAGE JOBS ON MORE THAN ONE COLOR SERVER:
1. Configure the connection to the first server and log in.
See Getting Started for information on configuring the connection to the
server.
2. Click a blank server selection tab.
3. Configure the connection to the next server and log in.
The Command WorkStation windows show the job lists for the additional
server. You can route and manage the jobs processed by this server as long as
you are logged in.
4. To switch servers, simply click the other server selection tab.
Once you have logged in, you do not need to log in again unless you have
logged out.
If the servers are extremely busy with continuous jobs, you may see some
delay in updating the Command WorkStation window when you switch
between servers. Job lists may be blank for some seconds until updating is
complete.
TO TRANSFER JOBS BETWEEN COLOR SERVERS:
1. Log in to more than one color server, as described above.
To transfer jobs between color servers, both color servers must support the
Send to <Nickname_Devicename> command.
2. In the Queues window of the source color server, select the job(s) you want
to transfer.
You can select any held jobs in the Spool or RIP areas.
3. Choose the Send to <Nickname_Devicename> command from the Job menu.
The actual command contains the nickname of the other color server
currently connected to the Command WorkStation; for example,
Send to
Aero_2100S-2100
. If two or more additional color servers (in addition to the
originating server) are connected to the Command WorkStation, multiple
Send to <Nickname_Devicename> commands appear in the Job menu.
