Proofing and Holding a Job

The proof and hold feature provides a quick and easy way to print
and proof one copy of a job and then print the additional copies.
The job is held on the printer’s memory until the user prints the
additional copies. After the additional copies are printed, the proof
and hold job is deleted from the printer.

Note

The proof and hold feature works by using the printer’s available
RAM memory. A minimum of 32 MB of RAM is required.
